Root Beer Floats

The root beer must be very cold when you make these floats, or the ice cream will melt too quickly. My mother always made these in those clear glass beer steins (which we used to drink ice water instead of beer).

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients:

• 4 scoops super-premium ice cream
• 16 oz. bottle root beer

Preparation:

Pour about 1/2 cup root beer into the bottom of each glass. Carefully add one scoop of ice cream to each glass, then fill the glass with more root beer. The glasses will probably overflow - that's part of the fun! Eat slowly, starting with the cold frozen foam on top, scooping ice cream and root beer together with your spoon, then drinking the creamy, caramel colored root beer at the end. Serves 4
