Sour cherries, also known as tart cherries, are small, vibrant red fruits prized for their distinct tangy flavor. Commonly used in European and Middle Eastern cuisines, they are popular in desserts like pies and jams, as well as savory dishes and beverages. Rich in antioxidants such as anthocyanins, sour cherries may help reduce inflammation and support muscle recovery. They're also an excellent source of vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fiber, promoting immune health, heart health, and digestion. Sour cherries have a lower natural sugar content compared to sweet varieties, making them a healthier choice for managing blood sugar levels. While fresh sour cherries are nutritionally dense, processed versions, such as canned or dried cherries, may contain added sugars, reducing their health benefits. Perfect as a snack or ingredient, sour cherries combine unique flavor with impressive nutritional qualities.
