CHERRIES JUBILEE
Cherries Jubilee is a dessert made with dark pitted Bing cherries, liqueurs, flambéed and served over Vanilla Ice Cream.
This dessert was first served at one of Queen Victoria’s Jubilee celebrations, though it is unclear whether it was for the Golden Jubilee of 1887 or the Diamond Jubilee in 1897.
It continues to be a classic dessert that is enjoyed in fine restaurants, resorts and clubs around the world and at the Saginaw Country Club in Saginaw, Michigan.
ENJOY!
