Procedure:

Choose perfect cherries. Wash, remove stems, dry completely. Do not pit.
In a large crock that has a cover (you can use aluminum foil and a large rubber band), layer the cherries, sugar and spices. Add the brandy and stir all together thoroughly. (Save the bottle!) Cover tightly and let stand at room temperature at least 2 months. Drain liquid off cherries and place back in the brandy bottle. Refrigerate the cherries and use in desserts, or eat them.
