Description

Crisp apple cider mingles with creamy vanilla ice cream as ribbons of caramel cascade over a fluffy whipped topping, all dusted with warming cinnamon and crunchy pecans for a festive twist.


Ingredients

  • 2 cups apple cider
  • 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Whipped cream for topping
  • 1 tablespoon chopped pecans


Instructions

  1. Drizzle a tablespoon of caramel sauce inside each glass and tilt to coat the sides.
  2. Pour chilled apple cider into each glass, filling about three-quarters full.
  3. Gently add one scoop of vanilla ice cream to each glass so it floats on top.
  4. Drizzle remaining caramel sauce over the ice cream and sprinkle ground cinnamon evenly.
  5. Top with a swirl of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped pecans, then serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use freshly made or high-quality chilled apple cider for best flavor.
  • For extra spice, warm the cider with a cinnamon stick then chill before assembling.
  • Serve right away to enjoy the creamy float before the ice cream melts completely.
  • Try salted caramel sauce for a sweet-savory twist.
