Please follow the steps and pictures below to make your very own delicious creamy root beer float. We use a specific ice cream and root beer in this how to, but you can use any kind of ice cream and root beer that you like best!

1. The first and most important step to making a root beer float is to gather the ingredients. You will need to get a can or glass of your favorite root beer. Some popular brands of root beer are A&W Root Beer, Mug Root Beer, Barq's Root Beer, and if you're lucky enough to have a more local brew like Jone's or Hosmer Mountain Soda Root Beer, use that! I have a nice bottle of Jone's Root Beer for this how to.

2. The next most important ingredient in your delicious root beer float is the vanilla ice cream! Make sure you have your favorite brand on hand, as the ice cream will make a big difference on the quality of your root beer float. Make is the best root beer float it can possibly be. I picked up a semi local brand, Friendly's, headquartered in beautiful Wilbraham Massachusetts. But another high quality brand like Edy's, Haagen-Dazs, or Ben and Jerry's would certainly fit the bill.

3. Now, this step isn't completely essential, but I highly recommend chilling your mug or glass in the freezer for a little while. If it gets a little frosty, that's a bonus! A chilled glass will keep your root beer float from melting into a complete mess when you're making it. The cold glass will also make the entire experience very cool and refreshing.

4. Now you need to gather the remainder of your tools. The list is simple: Ice Cream Scoop, Spoon, Straw! That's it, you don't need much to make and enjoy a good root beer float.

5. Now the fun begins, it's time to make this root beer float, I'm thirsty already! Open up the delicious carton of ice cream you've gathered, and scoop our a few big scoops with the ice cream scoop. Now place those scoops right into the chilled mug, it's been waiting all day for an opportunity like this and your mug won't let you down.

6. Now that your vanilla ice cream is safely inside the chilled mug, it's time to pop open your pop, aka open up that cold crisp delicious root beer! Once open, slowly pour the root beer into your mug, watch out for the foam! You may have to wait a few moments or even suck up some of the foam with the straw before you can pour more root beer into your mug.

7. You've done it, you've made a delicous creamy home made root beer float! Stick your straw in, attack it with a sppon, and devour this tasty all-year-round treat. From all of us at rootbeerfloat.info, we are so proud and excited for you! A well made root beer float will rock your socks, and it's so Old-Fashioned Delicious! Go on, enjoy yourself, and make more so your friends can enjoy too!
