Cherries Jubilee and ice cream in New York, Jan. 26, 2023. Cherries Jubilee, a sauce made from sugared, butter-sautéed cherries flambéed with either kirsch or brandy, then poured over ice cream, was named in honor of Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897. Food styled by Simon Andrews.
Although this classic recipe was named in honor of Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897, the method of sautéing cherries with butter, sugar and a splash of Cognac or kirsch probably predates those festivities. Flambéing the mixture helps cook off some of the alcohol and singes the cherries, adding a gentle caramelized note. But you can skip that step and just add an extra 2 minutes to the simmering in Step 5 after adding the Cognac.
