Instructions
Soak dried cherries in the cherry juice and water overnight.
Place cherries with the liquid into a blender and blend until smooth.
Transfer mixture to a small sauce pot, add the lime zest, juice and honey/agave and simmer for about 5 minutes over medium-low heat.
Preheat oven to 170°F degrees.
Spread mixture out onto a large baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper into a thin even layer.

Carefully peel the fruit leather off the baking mat/parchment paper and cut into strips.
Store with parchment paper between strips in an airtight container.
