Divide the blended juice mixture evenly among four tall glasses, filling each glass about halfway.
Carefully pour sparkling water or lemon-lime soda over the juice mixture in each glass. Leave enough room at the top for ice cream and toppings.
Gently add one scoop of vanilla ice cream to each glass, letting it float on top of the liquid.
Garnish each float with a few slices of fresh strawberries and a mint leaf for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately with a straw and a spoon for scooping. Enjoy your Frosty Fruit Float while it's chilled and frothy!
