Wash the fruits and squeeze some lemon juice. Take the cherry pits out. In heated saucepan, mix 100 g of the cherries with the sugar and the lemon juice. Leave for 5-10 minutes on the hot plate to caramelize. Add the coconut liqueur and the other 100 g cherries in the middle of the process. You will want to have soft, syrup-texture cherries as well as hard and fresher ones. Stir occasionally. Withdraw from the hot plate and leave it to cool down (you may also put in the fridge for 10 minutes). |

Decorate with some fresh cherries and mint on top. |
