For a deeper flavor, try adding a splash of vanilla extract or almond extract after removing the compote from the heat. If using frozen cherries, there's no need to thaw them first. Simply add them to the saucepan as directed. Adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, depending on the tartness of your cherries. This compote can also be served warm or at room temperature.
