Boozy Cherry Cola Ice Cream float 🍨
A lush carbonated cola cocktail to pair with Dark Cherry Truffle Ice Cream.
Part whimsy, part indulgence – entirely worth savoring.
RECIPE (makes ~4-5 servings)
150 ml vodka
90 ml cherry heering liqueur
60 ml gentian amaro
100 ml cherry cola cordial
130 ml agar clarified lime juice
160 ml of water
To a large jar, add all liquids and give a quick whisk to incorporate. Force carbonate. Give a quick shake to mix the CO2 and keep in fridge for at least 2 hours.
IF you can’t carbonate at home, you can also mix the ingredients with fresh lime juice, and sub out water for soda water over ice!
Cherry Cola Cordial:
Zest of 1 lemon, 1 orange, 1 lime
1 ½ cups of water
1 cinnamon stick
1 inch of ginger, sliced
Pinch of nutmeg
¼ tsp citric acid
14 oz of fresh cherries (~400g), halved
230 g sugar (half granulated and half dark brown sugar for color)
To a saucepan, add peels, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, citric acid, cherries, and water. Bring to a boil and simmer for at least 20 minutes until the color runs vibrant and darkened. After cherries are softened, strain out solids (pressing them with a spoon so you can squeeze alllll the juices). To the now strained hot liquid, whisk in sugar until fully dissolved. Store in airtight jar in the fridge. Keeps in the fridge for 1 week.
