Ingredients
- 4 ounces milk
- Vanilla Bourbon Caramel Sauce, recipe follows
- 11 ounces premium vanilla ice cream
- Freshly whipped cream, with bourbon (optional), for serving
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 vanilla bean, scraped
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Combine the milk and 1/3 cup of the Vanilla Bourbon Caramel Sauce in a blender and blend until combined. Add the ice cream and blend until smooth.
- Drizzle some of the remaining caramel sauce into a glass in a decorative pattern. Pour in the milkshake, top with a dollop of whipped cream, and drizzle with more caramel sauce.
- Put the cream in a small saucepan, add the vanilla pod and seeds and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat, cover and let steep while you make the caramel.
- Combine the sugar and 1/4 cup cold water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; stir to combine. Cook, without stirring, until the sugar has turned a deep amber hue, 10 to 12 minutes.
- Remove the vanilla pod from the cream and slowly whisk the warm cream and the bourbon into the caramel. Continue simmering the mixture until smooth, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter and salt, whisking until smooth. Transfer to a bowl and let cool for 10 minutes.

Reviews
This is the most delicious caramel sauce I have ever tasted.
This is far from an ordinary vanilla milkshake. This is quite simply the BEST milkshake I’ve ever had. The caramel sauce turned out perfectly, the bourbon flavor came through perfectly and it was a creamy, delicious delight.
Love the flavor of bourbon!
