How to Make Banana Caramel Milkshake
- **Make the Caramel Sauce:**
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 3 tablespoons water.
- Cook over medium heat, swirling the pan occasionally but without stirring, until the mixture turns a deep amber caramel color (about 6-8 minutes). Watch carefully as it can burn quickly!
- Slowly pour in 1 cup heavy cream while whisking constantly. Be cautious as the mixture will bubble vigorously.
- Continue whisking for 1 minute to ensure the caramel is fully dissolved.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1 tablespoon dark rum (optional).
- Let the caramel sauce cool completely before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Bring to room temperature before using.
- **Make the Milkshake:**
