Indulge in the ultimate retro treat with this Creamy Cola Spider, a fizzy and fun dessert drink thatโs as simple to make as it is delightful to sip. This nostalgic recipe combines sweet, bubbly cola with luscious scoops of vanilla ice cream, creating a delightful foam thatโs both refreshing and irresistible. Topped with whipped cream, a drizzle of rich chocolate syrup, and a vibrant maraschino cherry, this soda fountain favorite is perfect for parties, family gatherings, or a special after-dinner treat. Ready in just 5 minutes and served in a tall, chilled glass, this creamy soda float is a quick and delicious way to satisfy your sweet tooth with a touch of classic charm.
Chill a tall glass in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to keep your drink cold and refreshing.
Take the chilled glass out of the freezer and pour approximately 355 ml (12 oz) of cola into the glass, filling it halfway to allow room for the ice cream and foam without overflowing.
Carefully add 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream into the cola, one at a time. The cola will fizz as the ice cream touches it, so go slowly to manage the foam.
Top the drink with 2 tablespoons of whipped cream to add extra creaminess.
Drizzle 1 teaspoon of chocolate syrup over the whipped cream for a touch of sweetness and decoration.
Finish by placing a maraschino cherry on top for a classic, vibrant garnish.
Serve immediately with a straw and a long-handled spoon to enjoy both the fizzy cola and the creamy ice cream.
