Ingredients

  • Vanilla ice cream (2 cups)
  • Caramel sauce (1/2 cup)
  • Milk (1 cup, cold)
  • Sea salt (1/4 teaspoon for two milkshakes)
  • Caramel drizzle for topping (optional)
  • Sea salt flakes for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Add 1 cup cold milk and 2 cups vanilla ice cream to a blender
  • Blend until smooth, about 2-3 minutes
  • Add 1/2 cup caramel sauce and continue blending
  • Add 1/4 teaspoon sea salt and blend for 10-15 seconds to incorporate
  • Pour milkshakes into glasses and top with caramel drizzle and sea salt flakes

Notes

Homemade caramel sauce (made with glucose or corn syrup instead of alcohol-based caramel) enhances flavor depth.
Adjust sea salt to taste - start with 1/16 teaspoon per shake and add according to preference.
For optimal texture, serve immediately after blending.
Can substitute 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream with 1/2 cup whipped cream for a lighter version.
