Can you use maraschino cocktail cherries instead of the original cherries?

Please provide me with more context! I need to know what recipe you're asking about to tell you if you can substitute maraschino cherries.

For example, tell me:

* What is the recipe for? (e.g., a cake, a drink, a salad)

* What is the original cherry type? (e.g., fresh cherries, dried cherries, canned cherries)

Once I have this information, I can help you determine if maraschino cherries are a suitable substitute and offer any relevant tips!
