ive heard that you can make these with other sodas but ive never tried it ive only ever done it with root beer
are other sodas actually any good?

First float I ever had was with coke, but root beer and vanilla ice cream is hands down the best combination.

coke is good, so is orange or grape flavored crush. Dr.Pepper was dissapointing. any other soda will probably be similar, too much foam and not a really good taste.

Dr. Pepper, RC Cola, Big Red

>> No.13598044

also is there a better way to make thes
i always do ice cream in a glass and pour the root beer in
does anybody blend them or do it the other way around

This thread remindes of the Friendly's which was about two blocks from me, they made some damn good floats and malts. Now that it closed the closest one is like 15 miles away.

Vanilla ice cream and orange soda. Birch beer in vanilla

I do it the opposite of you. Fill with root beer then plop the scoop of ice cream.

>> No.13598410

Coke and ice cream always sounds like something poor people who can't access root beer would do. It's like putting ketchup on spaghetti noodles, a cheap cheap attempt at the correct way to do something.

Now fanta orange and ice cream, that I can get behind.

What if you used vanilla frozen yogurt? Or Sherbert? Or chocolate ice cream? Or birthday cake ice cream and pepsi? Why limit yourself to one path when you could walk thousands. Measure your abilities.

Sure! While you’re at it, why not put peas and cream in your carbonara?

Not the dark rum, though. Gotta be Appleton Estates.

Italian soda > float
pour a shot of flavor syrup into a glass
add seltzer
add cream
top with whipped cream if you're fancy

Mountain Dew or any orange soda make great floats.

>> No.13599324

>>13598014
Clearly there's a lot of ideas for replacing the soda, but what about replacing the ice cream? Would a dollop of marshmallow fluff foam up the same way ice cream does in floats?

Chocolate might work with a fruity Crush
