Healthy Ingredient Recipes Healthy Fruit Recipes Healthy Citrus Recipes Healthy Lemon Recipes Sour Cherry Gin Fizz Be the first to rate & review! We've added a little red, white and blue to the classic gin fizz to create a summer cocktail that's perfect for Fourth of July celebrations or any other summer party. Sour cherries contain anthocyanins, antioxidants shown to reduce muscle soreness after workouts, and melatonin, which can help you sleep better. If you can't find them fresh, use frozen. Skip jarred or canned cherries to avoid added sugar.
