I love Valentine's day. But not for the reason you're thinking.
I love it because the overwhelming amount of red reminds the candy makers that cherry is a flavor too. In a sudden rush of enthusiasm, they put it into everything. So far this month I've seen cherry M&Ms, cherry Three Musketeers (which are delicious by the way), cherry Dove hearts, and well as cherry lollipops and other miscellaneous confections.
While perusing the fruit juice isle in the grocery store today I discovered yet more cherry deliciousness. Ocean Spray now makes a cherry juice cocktail. Now I know what you're thinking, "What a tosser. He didn't know Ocean Spray made Cran-Cherry. They've had that for forever." But this is not that. This actually uses cherry juice for the base and then throws some other fruit juices in with it. It's pretty good but not as cherry as I was hoping.
If anyone runs across any other brilliant exploitation of cherry flavor, please let me know.
