Coke and Vanilla ice cream.....
I always thought the root beer float was the classic. I found these today at the store and a float sounded good so I picked some up.. haven't fixed one yet because I forgot to get some vanilla ice cream before leaving the store.KIMG0627.JPG

Don't feel bad.......most of can relate entering a room....for something? Just can't remember why we were going there in the first place.

Hey Dragon, where in Michigan? I was born in Ann Arbor and spent my childhood there.

I could do a black cherry New York seltzer with Turkey Hill vanilla ice cream... and I like some crushed ice in mine. I have a hammer 😉 anyway u have me hungry for a float 🤗 I'll put the root beer seltzer on the grocery list cause that sounds so good I think I'll have to do it a few times 😋

If you're gonna use Coke for a float, you might as well add some peanuts

I couldn't find the New York seltzer root beer flavor but IBC has one that doesn't use corn syrup so a root beer float is on for dessert today.😋

I clearly have missed out on this all my life (i'm in the uk, so perhaps that explains it) -what do you do - just put ice-cream on top of the fizzy drink - how much of each?

When I was just a teen back in the 60's, all my friends and I would gather in the local 5 and dime for a pop. You could also get a float and this is how they made it. In a tall glass they would put crushed ice in it with your coke or whatever pop you wanted. Coke, Pepsi, Root beer. You have to make sure there's enough room for your scoop or two of ice cold ice cream otherwise you'll have a volcano 😊 served with a tall spoon and a straw 😋
