Ice Cream Float Recipe
Root Beer Float for #Icecreamweek
Welcome to Day 6, the final day of Ice Cream Week 2014! This year the event is hosted by Kim of Cravings of a Lunatic and Susan of The Girl in the Little Red Kitchen. We have teamed up with 25 amazing bloggers to bring you ice cream treats all week long. I hope you all threw out the scales this week. Better not to look!
Our sponsors for the event have provided us with some great prizes. A huge thanks to Cake Boss, Anolon, Microplane, WÜSTHOF, Page Street Publishing andQuarry Spoon. Kim of Cravings of a Lunatic and Susan of The Girl in the Little Red Kitchen have tossed in a bonus prize of a Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker because they think everyone should own one!
Just imagine a tall glass brimming over with Vanilla Ice Cream and Root Beer. That is why I decided to make a Root Beer float for today’s festivities. There is no need to go to a Ice Cream parlor when you can make this decadent treat at home.
