There’s nothing quite as delightful as a delicious Apple Cider Float! Try this frosty, sweet treat that tickles the taste buds and cools the senses.
We’ve added ginger ale to make a unique and refreshing fusion of two beloved beverages that promises to elevate your autumn experience to new heights. An apple cider float is a beverage made with apple cider and vanilla ice cream.
Apple Cider Float
Have you ever had an apple cider float? It’s quite yummy! I used to visit Apple Hill Farm in El Dorado County in northern California (between Sacramento and Tahoe). It was the thing to do in the fall. You can only imagine all the apple-flavored items they sold at the farm. Apple pies, apple donuts, apple cider, baked goods, vegetables, etc. I would love to have some of their apple cider to make this apple cider float. But it’s okay to make it with apple cider from the store.
In this blog post, we’ll explore the simple yet delightful recipe for crafting this delicious apple cider with ginger ale concoction.
Apple Cider Float Ingredients
Equal parts-
Apple Cider & Ginger Ale
3 scoops vanilla ice cream
Whipped cream for topping
Caramel sauce for topping
Cinnamon sticks for garnish, optional
Directions
To your glass, add 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream.
Fill the glass halfway with apple cider and top off with ginger ale.
If desired, top with whipped cream, caramel sauce, or a cinnamon stick.
Some heat up apple cider with cinnamon and other spices to create a warm and flavorful base. However, it will melt the ice cream too quickly. So I suggest using cold or room temperature apple cider.
Apple Cider Alternative
If you don’t have any apple cider, you can substitute apple cider with apple juice in this recipe. Be careful with adding caramel and any of the other sweeteners like cream. Since apple juice tends to be sweeter than apple cider.
By combining the nostalgic flavors of spiced apple cider with the effervescence of ginger ale and the creaminess of vanilla ice cream, you’ve got a treat-meets-beverage masterpiece that’s bound to leave you refreshed and craving more.
So, don’t hesitate to whip up this simple yet sensational recipe and treat yourself to a taste of autumn bliss.
