Ingredients:

Serving

2 pints vanilla ice cream, slightly softened
1/4 cup quality bourbon , plus
2 tbsp bourbon
1/2 pint heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 tbsp sweet vermouth
1 tbsp sugar
1 dash angostura bitters
1 liter cherry soda, chilled (1 liter = three 12-oz bottles)
maraschino cherry, for garnish

Directions:

Add ice cream to a blender or food processor. While the machine is running quickly add the bourbon and process until it just combines. Spread the ice cream in a rectangular glass or plastic container with lid and put in freezer until firm enough to scoop, this should take about 20 minutes.
While the ice cream is freezing, whip heavy cream with vermouth, sugar and bitters until soft peaks form. Refrigerate.
Fill 4 tall glasses 2/3 of the way with cherry soda. Put a scoop of ice cream into each glass and top with the chilled whipped cream. Place maraschino cherries on top of whipped cream and serve. Enjoy!
