Cherry Syrup:
Place cherries, water and sugar in a saucepan; heat over medium-low heat, until cherries are soft and bursting, about 6 - 8 minutes. Carefully pour mixture into a blender; place a towel on top of the lid in case any of the hot liquid escapes. Blend until cherries are pureed and mixture is combined.
In a large pitcher, combine lime juice, vodka and cherry syrup; stir well; refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Before serving, pour in the cold seltzer water. Taste; add in more syrup and seltzer, to taste if desired. Pour the mixture over crushed ice. Garnish with lime wedges, cherries and fresh mint.
