Sour cherries, also known as tart cherries or Montmorency cherries, are small, bright red fruits prized for their tangy flavor and nutritional benefits. Native to regions of Europe and Asia, sour cherries play a key role in various cuisines, often featured in desserts like pies, jams, and preserves, as well as savory dishes and beverages. Rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and powerful antioxidants like anthocyanins, these cherries are known to support immune health, reduce inflammation, and improve sleep quality due to their natural melatonin content. They are also low in calories and fat, making them a healthy addition to most diets. However, processed forms such as canned or sugared cherry products may carry added sugars, reducing their nutritional value. Whether enjoyed fresh, dried, or juiced, sour cherries deliver a uniquely tart burst of flavor and numerous health benefits.
