Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 scoops Dairy-free vanilla ice cream
- 12 ounces Chilled root beer
- 2 tablespoons Dairy-free whipped cream (optional)
- 1 piece Maraschino cherry (optional)
Instructions
Start by ensuring that all the ingredients are well chilled. The root beer needs to be cold for the best float experience.
Take a tall glass and place two generous scoops of dairy-free vanilla ice cream into the bottom. Ensure the ice cream is firm but scoopable.
Slowly pour the chilled root beer over the ice cream. Be careful not to pour too quickly to prevent excessive foaming and overflow.
Optional: If desired, top the float with a dollop of dairy-free whipped cream for an extra touch of creaminess.
Optional: Garnish with a maraschino cherry on top of the whipped cream for a classic look.
Serve immediately with a straw and a spoon, and enjoy the refreshing, creamy indulgence of a dairy-free root beer float.
