I'm not a big fan of root beer, but I still enjoyed this sundae. The vanilla ice cream and cherries really helped to balance out the flavor of the root beer.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover root beer. I always have a bottle or two in the fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

I love the addition of the cherries. They add a nice touch of sweetness and tartness. I also like to use a scoop of chocolate ice cream instead of vanilla. It gives it a more decadent flavor.

I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this recipe was to make. I was able to whip it up in no time. The only thing I would change is to use a higher quality root beer. I think that would make it even better.
