Which cherries are best for cherry sherbet?

What goes well with cherry sherbet?

What is Cherry sherbet?
Cherry sherbet here refers to kiraz şerbeti, a traditional Turkish drink made by simmering cherries with water and sugar, then straining the mixture. Some home recipes add lemon or spices. Served chilled, it has a fruity aroma and a sweet-tart taste, and is refreshing on a warm day.
In Turkey, it may be offered at family gatherings and festive tables, poured into glasses plain or over ice. Its energy comes mainly from carbohydrates: it contains 32.1 g per 100 g. For a less sweet glass, reduce the sugar or dilute the sherbet with cold water; it also pairs well with savoury snacks.
