Some of our favourites this Cherry season

The weather is warming up and it can only mean one thing - IT'S CHERRY SEASON!

Here are some of our favourites.

Lovely fresh cherries from CherryHill Orchards and Wandin Valley Farms

We love the plump and juicy cherries from CherryHill Orchards and Wandin Valley Farms. The perfect time to enjoy, cherries have a unique combination of vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds which act together to deliver health benefits not available in supplements.

Fresh foods not only retain more of their nutrients than processed foods or supplements, but these act together to naturally provide the body with a more complex and potent mix of the compounds it requires to prevent disease. 

Cherries contain powerful antioxidants called anthocyanins - these belong to a large family of phytonutrients called flavonoids, linked to a vareity of health benefits, and provide cherries with their deep, rich red color.  Cherries also provide a good source of potassium and fibre.

So, make sure you add some cherries to your festivities this season!

Cherry Whit Beer, Cider + Spritzer

Calling all cherry enthusiasts, this is for you! Cherryhill Orchards have also recently launched some refreshing cherry drinks.

The Cherry Whit beer is a refreshing Belgian-style whitbeer, unfiltered, bottle conditioned and made from all natural ingredients and a whole heap of cherries. We loved the distinctive crimson clolour, subtle cherry aroma, flavours of vanilla and cherry with a crisp malty sweetness.

The High Branch Cherry cider is a whole fruit cider with no added sugar, flavours or colours - Just 100% Cherryhill cherries. With a rich flavour, medium dry finish and a delicious cherry aroma, its perfect for the festive season. 

Last but not least, the Cherish Cherry Spritzer is a non-alcoholic sparkling spritzer that the whole family can enjoy. Delicately sweet from natural sugars, its delicious AND guilt-free. If you want to spice it up, its a great mixer, especially for gin.
