Sparkling Lemonade & Vanilla Ice Cream Float

August 24, 2024

Here’s a refreshing recipe for a Sparkling Lemonade and Vanilla Ice Cream Float, perfect for a hot day:

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup sparkling lemonade (store-bought or homemade)
  • 2 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • Fresh lemon slices (optional, for garnish)
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
  • Ice cubes (optional, for extra chill)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare your glass: Start with a tall glass. If desired, add a few ice cubes to chill the drink.
  2. Add vanilla ice cream: Drop in two scoops of vanilla ice cream into the glass.
  3. Pour the sparkling lemonade: Slowly pour the sparkling lemonade over the ice cream. The bubbles will create a fizzy, creamy foam as the ice cream melts into the lemonade.
  4. Garnish: Add a fresh lemon slice on the rim of the glass or place it inside the drink. For an extra touch, top with fresh mint leaves.
  5. Serve immediately: Grab a straw or spoon and enjoy your Sparkling Lemonade and Vanilla Ice Cream Float while it’s still cold and bubbly!

Tips:

  • For extra flavor, try using lemon sorbet instead of vanilla ice cream.
  • If you prefer a sweeter float, add a dash of simple syrup or a sprinkle of sugar over the ice cream before pouring the lemonade.

Enjoy your summery treat!
