- Add the ice cream to the glass first. This will help prevent the ice cream from getting too melty.
- Pour the root beer over the ice cream slowly. This will help prevent the ice cream from fizzing up too much.
- Top with a scoop of whipped cream and a cherry, if desired. This will add a festive touch to your float.
- Enjoy your float immediately. Root beer floats are best when enjoyed fresh.
