Process 6 cherries with the remaining ingredients with 1 cup
crushed ice in blender until smooth.
Pour into hurricane glass.

Best served immediately after preparation. Store unused Italian preserved cherries in their original syrup in a sealed jar in a cool, dark place for up to 6 months.

Italian preserved cherries in syrup deliver superior flavor and are recommended, but domestic maraschino cherries work as an accessible substitute.
Mix the liqueurs and cream components up to 2 hours ahead, but add the cherry garnish just before serving to maintain presentation.
A coupe or cocktail glass works best for this creamy drink, chilling the glass beforehand helps maintain temperature.
Heavy cream or whole milk can replace half-and-half; use less heavy cream (1/4 oz) as it's richer, or more milk (3/4 oz) for a lighter texture.
Substitute half-and-half with oat cream or coconut cream to keep the creamy texture while accommodating dairy allergies.
