Delicious and easy to make Ice Cream Floats for kids. Ocean Ice Cream Floats are the perfect fun summer drink to cool off with. Come on in and I’ll share the recipe with you…
Ocean Ice Cream Floats
These are so much fun for the kids.
Luckily, they are easy to make. The kids will most likely ask for seconds and thirds – if you let them.
What Sodas are Good for Floats?
- You can literally use any soda for a float. Orange soda, Root Beer, Coke, Pepsi, Grape Soda, and Sprite are all great Ice Cream Float Sodas
How Do You Eat an Ice Cream Float?
- Ice cream floats can be eaten with a straw and spoon combination or just by using a straw. If you use a spoon, you can scoop at the ice cream and also drink the liquid with your straw. The vanilla ice cream will dissolve in the soda, so just using a straw is fine too
