Fresh Cherrie Juice

Rinse , stem and remove pits from cherries. I used the cherrie pitter, pictured below

Place cherries in food processor or blender and puree in batches

Strain through a fine mesh strainer in batches, pressing to extract all the juice. Rinse strainer between batches. Stir in lemon juice and salt

You should have about 3 cups fresh cherry juice. Each pound of cherries yields about 1 cup juice. This juice frezze very well to have on hand all year round for mousses, puddings , cherry curd , frosting and fillings and to drink or add to drinks
