Cherry Vanilla Float
Ingredients
- Cherry · frozen1 bag + 1 ½ cups
- Sugar¼ cups
- Lemon¾ cups
- Ice cream2
- Whipped cream · for garnish
- Maraschino cherry · for garnish
Instructions
- Put the cherries, cherry juice and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes, until thick and jammy and the cherries are soft.
- Let the mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Blend until smooth with an immersion blender in the pan, or in a regular blender with care. Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a bowl and discard the solids. Let the syrup cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
- Pour 1 tablespoon of the cherry syrup into the bottom of a tall, footed glass. Slowly add the chilled lemon-lime soda, going easy as it foams.
- Gently top with the ice cream. Finish with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry. Serve immediately.
