How to Use

Frequently Asked Questions
Do Luxardo Maraschino Cherries contain alcohol?
No. Luxardo Maraschino Cherries are cherries packed in Marasca cherry syrup, an alcohol-free food product, and are not the same as Luxardo Maraschino liqueur, which is an alcoholic spirit made by the same company. The cherries themselves contain no added alcohol.
Do Luxardo Maraschino Cherries contain allergens?
The jar may contain cherry pits, so care is worth taking when serving them to children, and the cherries are certified gluten free and kosher. Always check the printed label on the jar for the most current allergen information before consuming, since production notices can change between batches.
How should I store Luxardo Maraschino Cherries?
Store the unopened jar at room temperature in a cool, dry place. Once opened, keep it at room temperature rather than in the refrigerator, since cold temperatures can cause the syrup to crystallize and change the texture of the cherries.
Where are Luxardo Maraschino Cherries made?
Luxardo Maraschino Cherries are produced by Luxardo S.p.A. in Torreglia, in the province of Padova, Italy, using a recipe the family-owned company has kept largely unchanged since 1821. The 14.1 oz (400 g) jar is also available in a Pack of 3.
