Ingredient Highlights

Frozen pitted cherries – Convenient and full of flavor, great for making syrup year-round.

Vanilla & butter extract – Gives that signature cherry pie flavor.

Cake batter extract – Optional, but gives it a nostalgic bakery twist.

Fresh cherries – Garnish for a picture-perfect glass.

Pro Tips Before You Start

Use a fine mesh strainer to get all the syrup from the fruit.

Let the syrup cool fully before mixing with tea.

Taste and adjust sweetness to your liking.

Use leftover syrup for cocktails, lemonades, or desserts!

How to Make Cherry Pie Iced Tea

Step 1: Make the Cherry Pie Syrup

In a saucepan, combine frozen cherries, sugar, water, and a pinch of salt.

Cook over medium heat, mashing the cherries as they soften.

Simmer until slightly thickened.

Step 2: Strain the Syrup
Pour the mixture through a fine mesh strainer, pressing on the cherries to extract all the juice.

Discard solids.

Step 3: Flavor the Syrup
Stir in lemon juice, vanilla extract, butter extract, and cake batter extract (if using).

Let the syrup cool to room temperature.

Step 4: Mix with Tea
In a tall glass or pitcher, combine 2 cups of cold unsweetened black tea with 4 tablespoons of cherry pie syrup.

Stir well to combine.

Step 5: Serve Cold
Add ice and garnish with fresh cherries.

Serve immediately for the most refreshing flavor.

What to Serve It With

Grilled summer dishes like burgers or chicken

Cherry pie or vanilla cupcakes for dessert

Spicy snacks to balance the sweetness

Brunch spreads with fruit salads or waffles

Variations & Substitutions

Use fresh cherries if in season—just pit before cooking

Try green tea or oolong for a lighter twist

Add a splash of sparkling water for fizz

Make a cocktail by adding bourbon or vodka

Storage & Leftovers

Store extra syrup in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 1 week

Brew tea ahead of time and chill for quick assembly

Avoid mixing the tea and syrup too far in advance—assemble fresh for best taste

Freeze syrup in ice cube trays for quick flavor boosts

FAQs

Can I use fresh cherries instead of frozen?
Yes, just make sure to pit them first.

Frozen is more convenient and consistent in flavor.

Is cake batter extract necessary?
No, it’s optional—but it adds a subtle bakery note that enhances the pie flavor.

Can I use sweetened tea?
Unsweetened tea is best since the syrup already adds sugar.

But adjust to taste!

How long does the syrup last?
Up to a week in the fridge in a sealed jar.

What if I don’t have butter extract?
Skip it or replace with a tiny bit of melted butter for richness.

Can I make it decaf?
Absolutely—use decaf black tea if you prefer.

Does it need to be served over ice?
Yes, it’s best cold. The syrup is sweet and concentrated, so ice helps balance it.

Final Thoughts

This Cherry Pie Iced Tea is pure summertime joy—sweet, tart, and loaded with real fruit flavor.

Whether you’re hosting a BBQ, lounging poolside, or just need a midday treat, this iced tea is a delicious, nostalgic sip of cherry pie in liquid form.
