Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (1-liter) bottle cola or similar cola drink (Recommended: Coca Cola)
2 cups fresh cherries

This float was a bit too icy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if the ice cream had been melted a little bit.

This float was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with less cherry cola.
