Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Vegan Vanilla Ice Cream
- 2 cups Chilled Root Beer
- 0.5 cup Vegan Whipped Cream
- 2 Cherries
Instructions
Ensure that both the vegan vanilla ice cream and root beer are well chilled before starting.
In a tall glass, add one cup of vegan vanilla ice cream. Using an ice cream scoop, portion the ice cream for easier distribution.
Gently pour one cup of chilled root beer over the ice cream in the glass. Allow the initial foam to settle slightly before adding more root beer.
Add more root beer until the glass is almost full, leaving some space for the foam and extra toppings if desired.
Top the root beer float with a generous dollop of vegan whipped cream.
Garnish with a cherry on top of the whipped cream for an extra touch of classic float presentation.
Serve immediately with a straw and a spoon to enjoy the float at its best consistency.
