Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Cherries: Pit and halve fresh cherries. In a saucepan, simmer with 2 tablespoons water over medium heat for 3-5 minutes. Mash to release juices, then remove from heat.
  2. Brew the Earl Grey Tea: Boil 1 cup of water in a separate saucepan. Pour over Earl Grey tea and steep for 3-5 minutes.
  3. Combine Cherry Mixture with Milk: Add the softened cherries to the saucepan with milk and optional cinnamon stick. Warm over low heat for 3-5 minutes.
  4. Sweeten the Mixture: Stir in vanilla syrup to taste and warm for an additional minute on low heat, stirring gently.
  5. Strain and Serve: Use a fine mesh strainer to pour the mixture into a mug, pressing the solids to extract flavor.
  6. Final Touches and Enjoy: Garnish with fresh cherry halves or cinnamon. Serve warm or over ice.
