Bring water, sugar, cinnamon stick and cherries to a boil. Simmmer 30 minutes if using fresh cherries, 10 if using canned. Mix together cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water, stir into cherries and cook and stir until clear and slightly thickened. Remove about 1 cup of cherries and some juice; puree in blender and return to rest of soup. Cool, add wine and cream, blend well and chill thoroughly. Just before serving add Cherry Heering or other type of cherry liqueur. Serve in chilled bowls garnished with mint and dollops of sour cream. SOURCE: The Whole World Cookbook.
