Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Glass

    Choose a tall glass or mug for serving your root beer float.

  2. 2

    Add Ice Cream

    Place 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream into the glass, allowing it to sit comfortably at the bottom.

  3. 3

    Pour Root Beer

    Slowly pour 2 cups of root beer over the ice cream. Pour gently to prevent overflow and to allow the fizz to settle.

  4. 4

    Add Toppings

    Top the float with whipped cream to your liking, followed by a maraschino cherry and a drizzle of chocolate syrup for extra flavor.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve immediately with a straw and a long spoon to enjoy the creamy blend of ice cream and root beer.
