Add boiling water and agave nectar and stir until well combined. Toss in cherries and give that a quick stir.

Put the lid on and refrigerate overnight (or at least 4 hours).

Transfer to serving bowl and add as little or as much milk as you like.

Top with a dollop of plain yogurt and a fresh cherry.

Sprinkle with cacao nibs and grated coconut.
