From , former About.com Guide

In Greek: βυσσινάδα, pronounced vee-see-NAH-thah

Ingredients:

  • 1 teaspoon of sour cherry syrup (see below)
  • 5 ounces of ice water
  • ice cubes

Preparation:

Add the syrup to the water and stir. Add ice and enjoy!

Note: The syrup from sour cherry preserves can be used, or use the syrup from Sour Cherry Spoon Sweet.
