Chill a tall soda glass in the freezer for 10-15 minutes, if possible, to keep the float extra cold.
Carefully measure and pour 12 oz of diet root beer into the chilled glass. Do this slowly to prevent it from foaming up too much.
Using an ice cream scooper, add 2 generous scoops of low-carb vanilla ice cream directly into the root beer. Allow the foam to settle before adding the second scoop.
Optionally, top with 2 tablespoons of sugar-free whipped cream for extra creaminess.
Drizzle 1 teaspoon of sugar-free chocolate syrup on top for an extra touch of flavor, if desired.
Serve immediately with a long spoon and straw. Enjoy your low-carb root beer float!
