Hot red cherry sauce recipe for ice-cream

Pairing beautifully with a range of flavours, our award-winning Rooibos is an easy way to put an exotic twist on even the most classic desserts. With red espresso®, one shot is all you need to infuse your dessert with the essence of Rooibos.

This is best made with fresh cherries at the height of summer, but frozen cherries make a good substitute out of season. You can add a shot of cherry liqueur for a grownup treat.

Ingredients

350g fresh cherries, pitted, or frozen cherries, defrosted and drained
1 tbsp castor sugar
1 x 60ml red espresso®Rooibos shot
12 scoops vanilla ice-cream

Instructions

Prepare red espresso® ground Rooibos – as you would coffee – using your coffee appliance:
Place the cherries, sugar and red espresso®Rooibos in a small pot and simmer over low heat for 10-15 minutes, or until reduced and syrupy.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving over vanilla ice-cream.
