Cherry Dr Pepper Float

On 26 June, 2012 by Jackie

A slight modification to an old classic. Why? Because Cherry Dr Pepper is by far my favorite soda ever…and well it just seemed interesting.  I thought about making this a million times since Dr Pepper released the cherry flavor years ago, but I never did.  Then a few weeks ago my mom bought me some vanilla Almond Dream ice cream at the grocery store because it was on sale.  Well now that I had vanilla ice cream I had to make the float.

What you will need: 

  • A glass
  • Cherry Dr Pepper (make sure soda is cold)
  • Vanilla ice cream (Vegan of course)
  • Ice cream scoop
  • And probably a spoon and a straw

Okay I haven’t made a float since I was a kid, I have to admit I forgot how to do it and had to ask my boyfriend for help. But it is kind of like riding a bike, I remembered how to do it really quickly after I started.

Fill glass about half way with soda. Using the ice cream scoop, scoop a large ball of vanilla ice cream.  Drop ice cream into glass.

Soda will fizz and foam up once the ice cream touches it so be careful about making a mess. Fill rest of glass with soda and ice cream to personal preference. Enjoy with a straw or a spoon!
