This was on a Facebook post, and I had to save it. Robert McCay Green of Philadelphia created the first root beer float in 1874. As the story goes, he was selling cold drinks to patrons at a local community celebration. It was a particularly hot day, and he eventually ran out of ice. He got creative and bought vanilla ice cream...

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 oz vodka
1/2 oz galiano
1/2 oz light cream
coca-cola
1 1/2 oz whipped cream

Steps:

  • 1. Add the vodka, galiano, and cream to an ice-filled collins glass.
  • 2. Stir well.
  • 3. Fill with cola, stir lightly, and top with whipped cream.
  • 4. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality root beer. The better the root beer, the better the float. If you can, use a craft root beer or a root beer made with real sugar.
  • Use fresh ice cream. Fresh ice cream will have a creamier texture and a more intense flavor than old ice cream.
  • Scoop the ice cream into balls. This will help the ice cream float better in the root beer.
  • Add a scoop of ice cream to each glass. Then, pour the root beer over the ice cream.
  • Top with whipped cream. This is optional, but it adds a delicious and creamy touch to the float.
  • Enjoy your float immediately. Root beer floats are best enjoyed fresh.

Conclusion:

Root beer floats are a classic American treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and refreshing root beer float that will be sure to hit the spot.
