Bobby Flay's All-American Flavors

Cocktail Cherries
Most maraschino cherries taste like the fake almond-flavored syrup they're soaked in—not fruit. Now Michter's, the acclaimed whiskey producer, has introduced Small Batch Cocktail Cherries, which are made with tart Michigan Balaton fruit. These not-too-sweet cherries have such true flavor, you might even be tempted to use them in a pie ($7 for 9 ounces; hitimewine.com).
