How to Make an Ice Cream Float

Mix up your favorite soda with a scoop of ice cream to enjoy this sweet American tradition!

Step 1: Fill the glass two-thirds full with soda and wait for the fizz to settle.
Step 2: Use the ice cream scoop to portion one large scoop per float.
TIP: Vanilla is the traditional flavor in a float, but you can use any ice cream you want, even a fruity sorbet.
Step 3: Gently drop the ball of ice cream into the glass. The soda will start to fizz!
Step 4: Top with whipped cream and add a straw.
TIP: Add candy pieces or nuts for an extra-special treat.
Step 5: Drink up!
FACT: Traditional ice cream floats were made by combining either 7 UP or Coca-Cola with vanilla ice cream.
