    These look awesome! I ended up buying a small travel size bottle of cherry liquor instead of the huge bottle of cherry brandy. Do you think that will make that big of a difference?

    That sounds like a smart idea since it only calls for two tablespoons!

    Do you think I can leave out the liquor?

    I found a travel size of kircsh(cherry brandy) :)....I didn't want to spend over $20 on a big bottle but even the travel size was $6 :O.....I already made the pastry cream but I converted it into vegan and it is yummy! :) Rebecca I think if you just use the juice from the cherries it should be just fine!!!

    Rebecca, I think you can absolutely leave out the liquor. Just use the strained cherry juice from the canned cherries straight up or reduce it a little on the stove to strengthen the flavor. I was thinking of leaving the liquor off of some of mine to make it more kid-friendly.

    Thanks everyone! I just used the syrup and I still got good flavor.
