Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups frozen cherries (pitted)
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream (non-dairy if preferred)
  • 1 cup cold milk (any plant-based or dairy option)
  • 1-2 tablespoons sweetener (optional, e.g., palm sugar or honey)

Instructions

  • Add frozen cherries, ice cream, and milk to a blender
  • Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides if needed
  • Adjust sweetness with sweetener, if using
  • Pour into glasses and serve immediately

Notes

Frozen cherries are key for creamy texture
Add ½ teaspoon vanilla extract for extra depth
For richer flavor, use 80% dark chocolate instead of sweetener
Blend without adding milk first to test consistency
Store leftovers in a sealed container for 1 hour (not recommended for longer due to ice cream melting)
