Instructions
- Fill Glasses: Fill four tall glasses with ice to chill and prepare them for the drink.
- Add Cherry Juice: Pour between ¼ to ½ full of dark cherry juice into each glass, depending on your taste preference for fruitiness.
- Add Vodka: Pour approximately 1½ ounces (1 shot) of vodka into each glass over the cherry juice to add the alcoholic component.
- Top with Cream Soda: Gently pour cream soda over the vodka and cherry juice mixture to fill the glass and create the creamy soda layer.

Notes
- You can adjust the amount of vodka or cherry juice to your taste for a stronger or fruitier drink.
- If you prefer a non-alcoholic version, simply omit the vodka.
- Using a naturally sweetened cream soda like Zevia can reduce added sugars.
- Cherries are optional but add a nice visual and flavor touch.
