I never knew I had so many questions about cherries.  Not just any cherries.  Plump local cherries, hand-plucked from a local orchard and bathed in a proper, traditional Italian recipe of maraschino (maraskeeno) liqueur.   Sought after cherries for any craft cocktail enthusiast.   I am, of course, speaking of Orasella Maraschino Cherries -a beloved favorite for most bartenders, bars and food & wine shops.  Anne SanGiovanni, the co-founder and owner, speaks to the evolution of Orasella-a journey that required well over 250 lbs of cherries to find the perfect finish to a cocktail.  Learn the proper distinction of your Shirley Temple cherry vs the honorable Maraschino that Orasella produces.   Hear the story of how it all began-2  working moms who sought each other's company while enjoying a creative outlet. Both seeking quiet from the chaos, saddled up at a bar one night, doing their R&D,  sipping cocktails thinking, "This drink is good, but...."      Listen in as Anne shares the learnings, trials, and victories of starting from scratch and establishing a well known brand for any sophisticated sipper.She also shares her tips for some local establishments slinging some of the best food & bev!  Orasella's one of my go to resources for thoughtful, intriguing cocktail recipes-hands down,Don't forget- Orasella is gifting a jar to one lucky guest at our April 28 event!Hope you're the lucky one.Orasella Maraschino Cherries: www.orasella.com, @orasellacherryMentioned:Sol LiquorSea Creatures, BarnacleRob RoyFinch & PineDeLaurentisSocial Creative Workshops | Social Creative Conversations PodcastAmy Vallejo | founder, co-collaboratorwearesocialcreativeworkshops@gmail.comwww.wearesocialcreative.com@socialcreativeworkshops
