Please, please no more cherry cocktail specials
It’s that time of year again when well-meaning restaurants and bars looking to embrace the cherry blossom mania start rolling out themed food and drink specials. Except instead of incorporating actual cherry blossoms, they almost always offer cherry cocktails and cherry doughnuts and cherry… well, everything., I am here to offer a friendly reminder: cherries are not cherry blossoms.
The Tidal Basin trees you’ll soon see flooding your Instagram feed don’t produce the fruit you eat. Yes, there are cherry-bearing trees in the region, but the season typically doesn’t even begin until June—long after all the cherry margaritas and cherry pancakes have disappeared from menus. It’s sweet irony that businesses looking to boost their local and seasonal cred do so with ingredients that are not at all local or seasonal.
