Ingredients
Scale
For each float
- 2 – 3 scoops vanilla or caramel ice cream
- 1/2 cup apple cider
- 1/2 cup ginger ale
- 2 tablespoons caramel sauce (storebought or homemade)
Instructions
- Scoop Ice Cream: Place 2 to 3 scoops of vanilla or caramel ice cream into each glass, providing a creamy base for your float.
- Drizzle Caramel Sauce: Pour caramel sauce generously over the ice cream to add a rich, sweet flavor.
- Add Apple Cider: Fill the glass halfway with crisp apple cider to introduce a tangy, fruity element.
- Add Ginger Ale: Top off the glass with ginger ale to add a refreshing fizz and balance to the sweetness.
- Final Caramel Touch: Drizzle additional caramel sauce over the top if desired for extra indulgence.
- Serve Immediately: Enjoy your caramel apple cider ginger ale float right away for the best fizzy, creamy experience.
Notes
- Adjust the ratio of apple cider to ginger ale to your taste; for less fizz, use 3/4 cup apple cider and 1/4 cup ginger ale.
- For a non-fizzy variation, omit the ginger ale entirely and enjoy an apple cider float.
- Use caramel ice cream for an even richer caramel flavor.
- Storebought caramel sauce works well, but homemade caramel sauce can elevate the flavor.
- Serve immediately to prevent the ice cream from melting and losing the frothy texture.
