Method
Preparation
Gather Your Ingredients
Ensure you have all the ingredients ready: 1919 Root Beer, vanilla bean ice cream, whipped cream, and maraschino cherries.
Prepare the Glass
Choose a tall glass or mug for your root beer float. Chill the glass in the freezer for about 10 minutes if you like it cold.
Scoop the Ice Cream
Using an ice cream scoop, place 2 generous scoops of vanilla bean ice cream into the chilled glass.
Add the Root Beer
Slowly pour the 1919 Root Beer over the ice cream. Start pouring gently to avoid excessive fizz and overflow.
Add Toppings
If desired, top the float with whipped cream and a maraschino cherry for an extra touch.
Serve Immediately
Serve the root beer float immediately with a straw or spoon to enjoy while it's frothy.
