Amaretto Cherry Fizz

• 1 cup pitted fresh cherries
• 1 cup amaretto (almond-flavored liqueur)
• 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
• 1/2 cup pasteurized egg whites
• 2 cups chilled brut prosecco

1. Place fresh cherries in a glass container or jar; pour amaretto over cherries. Cover, shake gently, and let stand in a cool, dry place for at least 48 hours or up to 2 weeks.
2. Strain the cherries through a fine sieve over a bowl, reserving amaretto and cherries.
3. Pour amaretto into a large cocktail shaker or quart-sized mason jar. Add lemon juice and egg whites. Add as much ice as possible, cover, and shake vigorously for 15 seconds. Strain about 1/4 cup into each of 8 chilled cocktail coupes or Champagne flutes; top each serving with 1/4 cup prosecco. Garnish with amaretto-soaked cherries, if desired. Serve immediately.
