What You Should Know

You'd find this jar of glossy maraschino cherries in the baking/cocktail aisle or on a grocery shelf when you're grabbing toppings for sundaes, cakes or cocktail garnishes. It gives a nostalgic, indulgent retro vibe — perfect for ice cream sodas, holiday fruitcakes, or an old‑school cocktail garnish. The cherries are syrup‑infused and treated with added sugar, juice concentrates for color and a "natural flavor," producing a soft, glossy texture and indicating a preserved/processed fruit rather than fresh produce.
