The secret to these Apple Cider Floats starts with homemade apple cider and homemade vanilla ice cream. Sure you could use the store-bought versions of both, but then you'd miss out on the extra-special depth of flavor that comes from the made-from-scratch versions. The apple cider is chilled, then topped with homemade vanilla ice cream and creme chantilly. Add a sprinkle of cinnamon and a straw and you're ready to serve these cool and creamy fall treats.
Esta Sidra de manzana hecha desde cero es el secreto para este postre tibio y cremoso de otoño. Sidra de manzana casera, helado de vainilla y crema chantilly son la perfecta combinación para saborear en un día fresco de otoño.
