A bit excessively sweet for my preference, yet not harsh or viscous. I anticipated it tasting like whiskey-flavored cough syrup, but was happily surprised by its drinkability. It works best when mixed (with lemonade, sangria, or a bit of soda and lime). My preferred use is a few drizzles atop a Manhattan. It's a superior alternative to maraschino juice or liqueur, and a fine replacement for grenadine.
A bit too sweet for my preference, but it serves as an excellent substitute for ingredients like grenadine or maraschino liqueur in cocktails.
Too sweet and simply not pleasant to consume. I enjoy cherries, but I discarded the bottle after a single serving.
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
