Ingredients

For Ice Cream:

4 cups Dr Pepper Cherry cold and flat
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 cups whole milk

For Dr Pepper Cherry Caramel Sauce:

3 cups Dr Pepper Cherry open about 12-24 hours before use, cover and allow to sit at room temperature
¼ cups water
1 cups granulated sugar
½ cups brown sugar
8 tablespoons butter melted
⅔ cups heavy cream

Instructions

For Ice Cream:

Mix all of the ingredients for the ice cream together in a large bowl. Mix well.
Pour into a 2 quart ice cream maker. Follow directions for ice cream maker.
Freeze as directed on the ice cream maker.
For soft serve, enjoy immediately. For firmer ice cream, place in freezer for a few hours to harden.

For Dr Pepper Cherry Caramel Sauce:

Pour the flat Dr Pepper Cherry into a saucepan, and boil until it reduces in volume by about half.
In a second saucepan, over medium-high heat, stir the water and white granulated sugar until the sugar is melted. Stir frequently and do not let it burn. Heat to boiling and until it is a nice golden color and as soon as that happens, stir in the brown sugar and the butter.
In another sauce pan put your water and granulated sugar. While heating it to boiling watch that you don't burn it. It should turn into a nice golden amber color. Once the sugar turns amber add the brown sugar, and melted butter.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk until well blended and smooth. Whisk in the heavy cream and the Dr Pepper.
Return to burner on low and stir with whisk until caramel sauce is smooth and well combined.
Serve over ice cream, cakes, drinks and more.
