For an upcoming gathering, guests are tasked with providing a themed board. I, of course, am probably overdoing the assignment but I love a fun challenge. The following is what it takes to create a banana split board with cherry limeades. In some instances, I elevated the ingredient, such as roasted strawberry-buttermilk sherbet and double Dutch dark chocolate ice cream instead of their basic blends. Going for extra wow factor by making my own maraschino cherries, then using the juice as the "cherry" in the limeades.
Banana splits:
- Bananas
- Randy Mill Farms homemade ice cream
- Roasted strawberry-buttermilk sherbet
- Double Dutch dark chocolate ice cream
- Hot fudge sauce
- Strawberry sauce
- Pineapple sauce (bonus!)
- Marshmallow sauce
- Caramel sauce (another bonus!)
- Toasted almonds
- Whipped cream
- Maraschino cherries
Cherry limeades served with an assortment of vodkas.
