Maraska Original Maraschino Liqueur is a Croatian cherry liqueur from Maraska in Zadar on the Adriatic coast. The house produces it from the regional marasca cherry and presents the expression in its traditional clear style. This listing is for one 1 L bottle at 32% ABV (64 proof).
Maraska controls marasca-cherry production through its own grove and preserves recipes associated with the region’s long liqueur tradition. The finished spirit brings concentrated cherry character in a dry, aromatic format designed to add structure as well as fruit to a drink.
Serve lightly chilled, pour a small measure after dinner or use it as a cocktail ingredient. Maraschino is a classic component in drinks such as the Aviation, Martinez and Hemingway Daiquiri, where a modest amount adds cherry depth without turning the drink into a syrupy serve. Store the bottle upright, tightly closed and away from heat or direct sunlight.
