Drink Ingredients:
So, how to cook cherry compote for the winter in a slow cooker:
When preparing compote from cherries, keep in mind that this berry is sweeter than cherries. That means less sugar. A liter of cherry drink will take 600 grams of sugar, while a maximum of 350 g of granulated sugar is needed for a can of cherry drink.
A pinch of citric acid can enhance the taste of a delicate berry. However, it should not be too much. No more than 1 gram per litre.
Cherry compote is very difficult to spoil. The berry goes well with other gifts of summer: strawberries, cherries, citrus fruits, gooseberries, apples and other fruits.
When sterilizing a drink, the following rules should be observed:
If after cooking there is syrup left, do not rush to pour it out. Leftovers can be used to make dessert. You can add berries, mint, citrus zest to it, or simply add syrup to tea.
But endless rains and flying bands of field thrushes make it necessary to quickly dispose of the harvest. It will not work to stretch the pleasure to eat it for at least a week. Either it will burst from moisture, or only bones on the stalks will remain from it after a raid by birds. Therefore, it is urgent to roll cherry compote for the winter.
Early cherries are also suitable for making compote. Most often it is mixed with strawberries - it turns out tastier. And the late one is good as a solo ingredient. It is absolutely self-sufficient and does not require any "backing vocals". Although it can be combined with apricots, peaches, some varieties of early apples, sour cherries.
Compote is twisted from cherries of any color - red, yellow, white, "red-sided". The main requirement for raw materials is that sweet cherries must be elastic, intact, not wormy. And if uninvited guests are wound up, then before cooking, you should soak the berries in a saline solution. Animals will float to the surface in horror and should be removed with a slotted spoon.
Compote is prepared with different contents of cherries. Someone cooks it because of the fragrant liquid, while for someone the cherry itself is more important. In the first case, you should put a third of the can of berries and fill the rest of the volume with syrup, and in the second case, it is the cherries that are tightly placed in the container. Very little syrup is needed.
Let's get to work. First of all, I give you a recipe brought from the Donbass about thirty years ago by my friend. Compote is prepared in this way not only from cherries, but from any berries and even from large tassels of elastic grapes.
Two liters of water.
320-420 g sugar (about two glasses).
2-4 g of citric acid.
It is justified to prepare compote from fresh cherries for the winter without sterilization in containers of at least 3 liters.
Assorted cherries with strawberries are rolled up in almost the same way. Take fruits in any ratio.
If you make compote with a predominant content of berries, then there will not be too much syrup in it. Such a product should certainly be sterilized to avoid spoilage during storage. Such a drink is prepared from berries with seeds and without seeds. In the first case, a syrup of 35% concentration should be prepared (for 650 g of water, 350 g of sugar). In the second case, we prepare a sugar syrup of 50% concentration (for 500 g of water, 500 g of sugar). A 1 liter jar requires approximately 300-350 ml of syrup. For each liter of syrup, 1 g of citric acid should be added.
Using this technology, it is justified to roll compote in jars with a volume of 0.7-1 liters.
In winter, put pitted cherries from compote in pies, cakes, various desserts and just eat as fresh.
1.8-2 kg cherries (approximately).
1-1.2 liters of water.
1 cup of sugar.
2 g citric acid.
If you decide to cook compote from fresh or frozen cherries for a child, then it should be cooked pitted. After all, the baby can choke on them. A homemade drink is much healthier than store-bought juices and carbonated drinks stuffed with "chemistry" and sweeteners. It has only one drawback - a high sugar content, which is certainly harmful. Therefore, we will cheat and prepare compote in a saucepan to drink now, without sugar at all. When the compote has cooled, we will sweeten it with liquid honey (if the child is not allergic to it) or put a small amount of sugar, as in tea.
We have reached the end of our meeting today. Of course, you can cook compote from fresh cherries in a saucepan to drink immediately, throughout the season of this delicious berry. But in the summer it is better to just eat any fruits fresh, and prepare compotes for the winter.
At our house, it is customary to open the first jar of some kind of compote with a high content of fruits on New Year's Eve. Most often it is cherry, pear or apricot compote. For me, such a “hello from the warm summer” is tastier than any cake. Yes, and the kids love to "peck" delicious berries.
Cherry is one of the first berries to ripen. And the housewives, taking the opportunity, try to prepare it for the winter. Moreover, even in canned form, sweet cherries practically do not lose their taste, and also retain their beneficial properties.

Cherry pits, like cherries, contain amygdalin glycoside. Under the influence of water, it decomposes, and hydrocyanic acid is formed, which is very toxic. Therefore, cherry compote with pits is stored for no more than one year. And, of course, do not bite the bones.
Store cherry compote in a dark, cool place.
Cherry berries are so tasty and fragrant that they are usually eaten fresh, and housewives do not even have time to prepare for the winter. If it still comes down to business, then instead of the usual jam, jam or jam, it is better to cook compote. This drink perfectly conveys the taste of fresh berries, quenches thirst and tones. In addition, it also has therapeutic properties, increasing the level of hemoglobin in the blood and saturating body tissues with vitamins, microelements, and fiber.
Product options made from cherries alone have the maximum benefit. Additional components fill the drink with a new taste, but this does not always have a positive effect on its usefulness.
In general, the berries only need to be sorted out before heat treatment, the end result will please with its taste in any case. If you want to cook the perfect compote, you should use these tricks:
Tip: Cherries are ideally combined with cinnamon, so this component can be safely added to any approach, regardless of which list of components is given in the recipe. In this case, the use of both cinnamon sticks and ground product is allowed.
At a minimum, the cherries should be thoroughly washed. To do this, after removing the petioles, place the berries in a colander and soak for a few seconds in cold water. We take out the colander, shake it up and repeat the manipulation. We do this several times, if necessary, change the water.
Of all the preparations for the winter, cherry drink recipes are the easiest to implement. Especially if they imply the presence of only one main component. The type of technique does not necessarily affect the quality of the final result. In this case, the impact option is rather selected according to the principle of convenience.
Regardless of how it is decided to brew the product, it is recommended to insist the finished drink for at least a week. Otherwise, the composition will be too watery, and the berries will be excessively juicy and sweet.
If the benefit does not play the most important role, then compote can be prepared using one of the following methods:
The shelf life of a product that uses pitted cherries should not exceed 1 year. If the berries are pitted, compote can stand for more than one winter, and its taste will not deteriorate at all.
