Instructions

Gather your ingredients. Make sure the vanilla ice cream is well-frozen but can soften slightly if necessary. Have all other ingredients ready.
In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream, strawberry syrup, heavy cream, milk, and optional rose water. Blend until thick and smooth, similar to a milkshake consistency.
Mix on medium-high speed until creamy, ensuring no ice chunks remain. If it's too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time, but avoid it getting too runny.
Pour the thick mixture into a tall serving glass until it's about three-quarters full.
Top with whipped cream if desired. Garnish with maraschino cherries (with stems) and optional edible glitter or sprinkles for a magical finish.
Serve immediately with a long spoon and a straw.

Notes

For thicker texture, use less milk when blending.
Experiment with other fruit syrups for a different flavor profile.
Chill your serving glasses beforehand for an extra refreshing treat.
