Instructions

Add 1/2 cup coconut milk beverage to a blender, followed by 2 cups vanilla ice cream.
Add 1 1/2 tbsp caramel sauce and 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract to the blender.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20 to 30 seconds until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
Check consistency. Add 1 tablespoon coconut milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin.
Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with 2 tbsp whipped cream and 1 tsp caramel drizzle.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

Use full-fat coconut milk beverage for richer flavor. For a dairy-free version, ensure whipped cream is coconut-based or another dairy-free alternative.
