I would imagine this would be good with other fruits too, such as raspberries, sour cherries, blackberries, or cranberries in the fall. No matter what fruit you decide on, definitely add this to your “to do” list! You can play around with it too. if you decide to use cherries, add in a bit of almond extract.
