Tips for Making Cherry Cola Salad

### - **Use fresh, ripe cherries.** The fresher the cherries, the better the flavor of your salad will be. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen or canned cherries, but the flavor will not be as good. - **Use a variety of textures.** This will make your salad more interesting to eat. Some good options include chopped nuts, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheese. - **Don't overdress the salad.** A little bit of dressing goes a long way. If you add too much, it will overwhelm the other flavors in the salad. - **Serve the salad chilled.** This will help to keep the flavors fresh and crisp. - **Garnish the salad with a few fresh cherries.** This will add a pop of color and flavor to your salad. ###
