Recipes entered into the 2023 Heering Cherry Christmas Cocktail Competition

Port and Peter

I love Kalimotxo and Sangria - in the summer however. I knew that Cherry Heering would be a great way to spike a Kalimotxo while adding a cherry flavour.

Merry Cherry Christmas

You don't need to add the egg white as it doesn't adjust the flavour here, so this can be substituted for a vegan alternative like Aquafaba.

Dear Christiana

Fur of the Reindeer
