Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 cups apple cider (store-bought or homemade) Ensure it's halal-certified
  • 2 scoops vanilla ice cream per serving Consider dairy-free alternatives for a vegan version
  • to taste whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pour the apple cider into a medium saucepan, and heat it over medium heat. Stir occasionally until it’s warmed through, but don’t let it boil.
  2. While the cider is warming, get your serving glasses ready. Clear glasses work best to show off that creamy float!
  3. Once the cider is hot, carefully pour it into your prepared glasses, filling them about 2/3 full. Then, gently add two scoops of vanilla ice cream to each glass.
  4. If you’re using whipped cream, add a generous dollop on top of the ice cream.
  5. Finally, sprinkle some ground cinnamon on top for extra flair and flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For dairy-free options, consider coconut or almond milk-based ice creams. Serve immediately for the best experience.
