Ingredients
Method
In large skillet, whisk wine with sugar over medium-high heat. Using paring knife, halve vanilla bean lengthwise; scrape out seeds. Add seeds and pod to pan.
Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened and syrupy, 10 to 15 minutes. Strain into bowl; discard pod. Stir in lemon juice; let cool to room temperature.
In food processor or blender, crush ice. Scoop 1/2 cup of the crushed ice into each of 8 to 10 paper cones or glass cups. Drizzle each with 1 tbsp of the wine syrup. Top with cherries and strawberries (if using).
Tip from The Test Kitchen: For a kid-friendly version, swap out the wine for grape juice.
