The makers of Black Infusions have added Dark Cherry to their portfolio of award winning, naturally-infused spirits.
Black Infusions Dark Cherry, Black Fig and Gold Apricot are all naturally infused with dried fruit. All three vodkas are 60-proof, gluten-free, and made without artificial sugars, flavors, or colors.
"The addition of Dark Cherry strengthens our portfolio at a time when consumers are looking for fewer ingredients and less alcohol," said Michael Davidson, Black Infusions CEO. "Bartenders are also thrilled by the new addition. All of the Black Infusions products offer tremendous flavor and texture without added sugar."
Black Infusions Dark Cherry is made from only two ingredients: dried cherries and vodka. The taste offers a balance of rich jammy fruit and acidity with a tannin structured finish.
The fruit selected for Black Infusions Dark Cherry is a combination of Bing and Rainier cherries grown and dried in California. Each bottle contains approximately one pound of dried fruit (seven pounds of fresh fruit).
Like all Black Infusions products, Dark Cherry is simply made, but wildly versatile. While it is delicious on the rocks, it adds a unique, delicious and infinitely crowd-pleasing twist to classic cocktails where vodka traditionally hasn't played – from Margaritas to Old Fashioneds. Case in point – Balthazar, NYC's venerable French bistro, features the Black Infusions Dark Cherry Manhattan on its cocktail menu.
