Le yum

And to add to the posts of today:
I know that a meal isn't complete without a yummy drink (or two in this case haha) but this is a delightful way to top off a meal.

 


Cherry Cola Float

Ingredients:

1 litre bottle of coca-cola or similar cola drink
2 cups of fresh cherries (500 ml)
2 cups of sugar (500 ml)
1 cup of water (250 ml)
Vanilla ice cream to garnish
Serve

Directions:

  1. Pit all cherries, leaving a few whole for garnish.
  2. In a saucepan, mix the cherries, sugar and water. Bring heat to medium high and stir, slowly reducing the liquid. Skim the surface of the syrup once in a while.
  3. Once liquid has reached a syrup-like consistency, about 25 minutes, remove from heat. Set aside to cool for 1 hour. Put in an airtight container and keep in the refrigerator.
  4. Serve
  5. In a frosted mug, add a scoop of ice cream, pour 1 tablespoon of the cherry mixture and top with coke. Garnish with fresh whole cherries.
  6. Note
  7. For a drink, remove vanilla ice cream and add a splash of spiced rum.
