Ice Cream Floats, Yes or No?

I am not an ice cream lover.  However, DD brought home a quart of soft serve vanilla over a week ago.

 

It sat in the freezer for 2 days untouched. Then it hit me there is a 16oz. Pepsi in the fridge, I can make a float.  So it started.  My nightly snack.

 

Now I do make it in a coffee cup as oppossed to a tall glass.  1 scoop and enough soda to cover, but still.  Thankfully, the ice cream is nearly gone.

 

I know it is usually a Coke float, but growing up my Uncle worked for Pepsi and Coke was a 4 letter word.

 

Are you a fan of ice cream floats?

I'm a huge ice cream lover, so yes I like ice cream floats. I prefer root beer floats.

Wow, I haven't had a float since I was a kid, I used to like chocolate ice cream in coke.  I wasn't a root beer fan so I never had that combination. I'm glad you found a treat you enjoy.  By the way, I wish I wasn't an ice cream fan, it would make it easier to go by the freezer section without drooling. 🤣

I use Canada Dry Ginger Ale & Bryers Vanilla ice cream to make floats.

I like a fountain-made chocolate ice cream soda.

I used to love coke and vanilla ice cream!

 

Can't stand root beer or licorice or anything similar.
