Ingredients
  

Cherry Vanilla Simple Syrup
  • 2 cups cherries, pitted (I use frozen)
  • ½ cup sugar or monk fruit
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
Cherry Vanilla Iced Cold Brew
  • ½ cup cold brew concentrate (I use Dunkin' at home brand)
  • ½ cup vanilla unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tbsp coffee creamer (I use nutpods unsweetened cookie butter flavor)
  • 2-4 tbsp cherry vanilla syrup
  • ice

Method
 

Cherry Vanilla Simple Syrup
  1. Combine cherries, water and sugar or monk fruit in a pot on the stove over medium heat.
  2. Bring to a slight simmer and keep an eye on the mixture, mixing lightly and pressing down on the cherries as the sugar dissolves.
  3. Once the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture has thickened, your simple syrup is done!
  4. Strain the syrup into a resealable glass container leaving out the cherries and let cool before mixing in the vanilla.

Notes

Notes:
  • If you'd like to make a cold foam on top, simply froth together your coffee creamer with a bit of the cherry vanilla syrup. Once thickened, pour it on top of your drink.
  • If you're making this drink with espresso,  add the syrup to a cup and brew your favorite espresso to your liking over top. I always allow it to chill/cool down by brewing the espresso over metal ice cubes or by using my hyperchiller so that the espresso doesn't become bitter as it cools. Then, in a cup with ice, pour in the creamer followed by either frothed or not frothed milk. Then, pour over the espresso with the syrup.
