How to Make Cherry Cheong (Quick Version)
  1. If you have fresh cherries, wash them thoroughly. Dab the water out of the cherries. Let them dry.
  2. Once the cherries are dry, take out the stems and cut them in half. Take out the stones.
  3. Take the cherries and roughly chop them. Mix the chopped cherries well with the sugar. Leave it for up to four days until the sugar dissolves naturally. Check it daily to see how it's developing, and mix thoroughly with a wooden spoon.
  4. After a few days, you will see that the sugar has dissolved completely and has made cherry syrup! Pour the syrup into a separate glass bottle.
