Best 4 Peach Float Recipes

BLUEBERRY PEACH FLOAT

Steps:

• In a saucepan, bring to a boil the sugar, water, and vanilla bean. Once it boils add the frozen peaches and lemon juice and let them sit in the hot syrup 5 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean and puree the liquid. Strain into a shallow pan and freeze overnight. Scrape the next day and store in a container in the freezer until ready to serve the floats.
• To serve the floats, place a spoonful of the scraped peach granita in a small juice glass. Top with 6 or so fresh blueberries. Pour tonic water over to cover and serve with a straw, cut the straw shorter, if needed, to fit the glass.

JUST PEACHY FLOATS

Steps:

• To a tall glass, add 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream. Pour the schnapps or syrup over the ice cream. Fill the glass the rest of the way with club soda. Serve with a straw and spoon.

GRANDMA'S FLOAT

Steps:

• Whisk the flour and 2 tablespoons of white sugar together in a small bowl until combined; set aside. Whisk together the egg yolks, milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract in a small saucepan until smooth. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat, and stir constantly. Once the mixture is warm, whisk in the flour mixture, and continue cooking until the sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes. Whisk constantly as the sauce cooks to keep it from scorching. Once thick, keep warm over low heat.
• Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Gradually add the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape. Finally, beat in the remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
• Pour the hot sauce over the egg whites, and gently fold together using a rubber scraper until well incorporated. Do not mix vigorously, or the egg whites will deflate. Serve warm.

3-INGREDIENT GINGER-PEACH ICE CREAM FLOATS

Steps:

• Cook peaches in a large pot of boiling water 1 minute, then submerge in ice water. Slip off skins. Slice into 1/4" wedges.
• Bring peaches and 3 cups ginger beer to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until peaches are fork-tender, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
• To assemble floats, divide peaches among tall glasses and pour 1 Tbsp. poaching liquid over each; reserve remaining poaching liquid for another use. Top with 2 scoops of ice cream, then pour remaining 3 cups ginger beer over. Serve with spoons and straws.
