METHOD
In a blender, combine the bananas, almond milk, coconut butter, and vanilla until smooth. Place about one-third of the mixture in a bowl and refrigerate. Blend the remaining two-thirds of the banana mixture with the cherries, rose water, and rice syrup until smooth.
With an ice cream maker: Fill an ice cream maker halfway with the mixture and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Swirl in the reserved banana mixture when it's almost done. Transfer to a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze until ready to serve. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the ice cream to thaw before serving.
Without an ice cream maker: Fill a freezer-safe bowl halfway with ice cream and swirl in the reserved banana mixture. Freeze for about 3 hours, stirring thoroughly every 30 minutes. Scoop into serving bowls, then serve and enjoy!
