STILL Cherry Noir syrup with cherries, almonds, chocolate, and a cherry drink

Cherry Noir Syrup Coffee, Matcha & Cocktail Recipes

Cherry Noir starts with jammy cherry, then moves through dark chocolate, almond, vanilla, and warm cinnamon. Those flavors make it easy to move from a bourbon drink at night to espresso or matcha in the morning. These four recipes use STILL Cherry Noir Syrup and keep the builds simple.

Ingredient note: Cherry Noir contains almond extract. Check the product label if you have a tree-nut allergy.
