What is maraschino?

Maraschino · Italian

Clear Italian liqueur distilled from sour marasca cherries and their pits. Funky, floral and nutty, nothing like neon cocktail cherries.

What it tastes like

Dry-ish and perfumed, with cherry pit, almond, flowers and a strange, likable funk. A little goes a long way.

Where you’ll see it

Classic cocktails like the Last Word, Aviation, Martinez and Hemingway daiquiri.
