Ingredients
2 cups frozen dark cherries (pitted)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon lime zest
2 tablespoons honey or simple syrup (adjust to taste)
1 cup ice cubes
1/4 cup cold water (add more as needed)
Instructions
1. Add frozen pitted cherries into a high-speed blender.
2. Pour in the fresh lime juice and add lime zest.
3. Add honey or simple syrup and ice cubes.
4. Pour in cold water.
5. Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until you reach a smooth, frosty texture.
6. Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice as needed.
7. Pour into chilled glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
Use frozen dark cherries for the deepest color and richest flavor.
Fresh lime juice works best — bottled juice tastes flat.
Add cold water one tablespoon at a time only if the blender needs help.
Garnish with a lime wheel and a few whole cherries on top for a great look.
Swap honey with maple syrup for a different natural sweetness.
