A NEFT Barrel and a glass of Cherry Bomb on a bar counter.

Cherry Bomb

A closeup of a Spicy, Year Round Cherry Bomb drink against a dark background.

With bittersweet cherry and a spicy kick, the Cherry Bomb definitely lives up to its name! Not only is this cocktail tasty, it’s a great choice for hobbyist mixologists to try out to uplevel their skills. You can easily create your own cherry rosemary reduction at home by muddling fresh fruit and herbs with simple syrup. Easy enough to prepare, but feels elevated – and sure to impress whoever you’re raising a glass with!
