THE BEST ROOT BEER FLOAT RECIPE



The Best Root Beer Float Recipe image

To make an old-fashioned creamy root beef float that is creamy from the word "go," melt a couple of tablespoons of ice cream per float and pour that in the bottom of your glass first. You're welcome. Now go make one immediately.

Provided by Jennifer Field

Categories     Beverages

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup vanilla bean ice cream, melted but still cold
8 scoops vanilla bean ice cream
4 12 oz bottles your favorite root beer
1 cup whipped heavy cream, unsweetened (my preference)
4 maraschino cherries

Steps:

  • Pour 2 Tablespoons of melted vanilla ice cream in the bottom of your glasses.
  • Top off with about 1/4 of the bottle of root beer.
  • Add one scoop of ice cream to each glass and then slowly fill with root beer until the foam reaches the top rim of the glass.
  • Plop in another scoop of ice cream. Spoon or pipe on a generous swirl of whipped cream, and then perch a drained maraschino cherry on top.
  • Enjoy, and keep your bottle of root beer right next to you, because as you sip, you'll want to keep adding root beer. It's like a bottomless float!

ROOT BEER FLOAT COFFEE RECIPE



Root Beer Float Coffee Recipe image

During the hot summer months, it can be a lot of fun to find new beverages to keep us cool. A long-standing favorite is the root beer float, and it has gone unchanged for decades, just root beer, vanilla, and vanilla ice cream. However, we think we can surprise you by spicing up the old standard with coffee.

Provided by Ed Malaker

Categories     Dessert

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 scoops Vanilla bean ice cream
1 scoop Coffee ice cream
¼ cup Root beer

Steps:

  • Gather your ingredients.
  • For each member of your family, place a tall glass in the freezer and let it chill for at least five minutes while you are getting your ingredients together.
  • To begin creating your coffee root beer float, place one scoop of ice cream into each glass and pour half of the root beer on top.
  • Use a long but small spoon to mash the vanilla ice cream and root beer together until fairly smooth. The better it's blended, the better it will be.
  • Add one scoop of coffee ice cream, one scoop of vanilla ice cream, and the remaining root beer.
  • Serve.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 pint vanilla bean ice cream
2 quarts root beer

Steps:

  • Hang a large, well packed scoop of vanilla ice cream on the edge of a fountain glass or other tall drinking glass. Fill the glass 3/4 full with root beer. Set the fountain glass on a salad plate, underlining the glass for overflow. Serve floats with straws and parfait spoons. When you are ready to enjoy the floats, knock the ice cream into the root beer and watch it fizz up as the ice cream floats. Yummy! This is the simplest and my most favorite fountain drink!
