Ingredients
Scale
4 cups apple cider
1/2 cup caramel sauce (plus extra for drizzling)
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
4 scoops vanilla bean ice cream
Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Extra sea salt (for sprinkling)
Instructions
Gently warm the apple cider in a saucepan over medium heat. Do not boil.
Stir the caramel sauce and sea salt into the warm cider until fully combined.
Divide the warm cider mixture evenly among four tall glasses.
Top each glass immediately with one scoop of vanilla bean ice cream.
Drizzle extra caramel sauce over the ice cream.
Add a dollop of whipped cream, if using, and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt.
Serve right away and enjoy the float.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use unfiltered apple cider.
You can make your own caramel sauce for the best taste.
Taste the cider mixture before adding the ice cream; adjust salt if needed.
This float is best assembled just before serving to maintain the fizz and cold contrast.
