Ingredients
  

1 cup cherry syrup (store-bought or homemade)

2 cups club soda

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Whipped cream, for garnish

Maraschino cherries, for garnish

Ice cubes

Instructions
 

Prepare the Glasses: Start by filling two tall glasses with ice cubes to keep your sodas nice and cold.

    Mix Cherry and Soda: In a separate mixing bowl or container, combine the cherry syrup and club soda. Stir gently until mixed, ensuring the soda remains bubbly.

      Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer or whisk, whip the mixture until soft peaks form. You want it to be fluffy but not overly stiff.

        Pour the Cherry Mix: Pour the cherry and soda mixture evenly into the glasses filled with ice. Fill the glasses about three-quarters full to allow room for the cream.

          Add the Cream Topping: Spoon the whipped cream on top of each glass, creating a generous layer.

            Garnish: Top the whipped cream with maraschino cherries for a classic finish. Optionally, drizzle a little extra cherry syrup over the whipped cream for extra sweetness and a beautiful presentation.

              Serve: Serve immediately with a straw or a long spoon for mixing.
