Notes
- For a thicker milkshake, add more ice cream or use less milk.
- Use frozen cherries if fresh ones are out of season; no need to thaw before blending.
- Adjust the almond extract to taste; a little goes a long way.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute ice cream and milk with almond milk or other plant-based alternatives.
- Sliced almonds add a nice crunch but can be omitted for a smoother texture.
