Besides rootbeer and vanilla, what soda and ice cream combinations would make for tasty floats?<br><br>
I'm just wondering.

 

[diablita]

mm, that sounds so good!<br><br>
not sure about the floats, but sometimes we make shakes with Haagen Dazs Vanilla ice cream and Kahula.

 

[Buxtehude]

Oooh, that sounds goooood, diablita.

 

[Buxtehude]

Okay, this thread is now open to any soda-y or sauce-y or liquor-y ice cream treat.

Orange soda and vanilla ice cream

 

[Buxtehude]

Like a creamsicle!<br><br>
I wonder if orange soda would be good with chocolate ice cream. I'll have to try it.

I hate root beer so my babysitter always made me coke floats when I was a kid.<br><br>
I am dying to try cherry coke with chocolate ice cream because cherry pie with chocolate ice cream is one of my favorite diner desserts. And now they have Cherry Coke Zero, which is more addicting than crack!

There used to be a diner here that made flavored cokes. You could even get a chocolate one. That was a long time ago, but a chocolate coke was good. I wonder what would happen if you tried chocolate ice cream and coke.<br><br><img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/confused.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Confused"><br><br><br>
I'll take the kahlua one, please.

Creme soda and vanilla<br>
Cranberry soda with orange sherbert<br>
Gingerale with black raspberry ice cream

 

[Buxtehude]

You're killing me. You're brilliant.

People here like Big Red and Vanilla Ice cream.

Orange and Chocolate are excellent together!<br><br>
I was thinking the other day that Root Beer and Cinnamon ice cream would be a good combo, but there's only one way to know for certain...<br><br>
I must get some <a href="http://www.straffordcreamery.com/#" target="_blank">Strafford Creamery</a> cinnamon ice cream on the way home tonight. The site is still under construction, but they're products are wonderful. And the milk is sold in glass containers. They have a hefty deposit ($1.25) but they're great bottles.

 

[Buxtehude]

Oh. Hmm.<br><br>
What's Big Red supposed to taste like?<br><br>
I've often wondered this.

 

[merigayle]

I have never had an ice cream float nor do i have any urge ever to have one <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sad.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Sad">

 

[Gingerbread]

Do you not do ice cream?<br><br>
Because a float is totally fabulous.

 

[drgenie]

Couldn't you make it with the soy ice cream, Meri?

 

[merigayle]

no, i like ice cream, its the soda part that grosses me out. and i hate root beer <img alt="" class="inlineimg" src="http://www.kickrunners.com/forum/images/smilies/sad.gif" style="border:0px solid;" title="Sad">

 

[Gingerbread]

Oh, well in that case, use whatever soda you like. It is a really nice combination.<br><br>
I can report that Vermonty Python with Root Beer is pretty good. I didn't get any cinnamon.

 

[triciaflower]

I wonder if club soda and vanilla ice cream would be like a cream soda with less sugar?<br><br>
Or it might taste like ass.

About 4 years ago, I had a float consisting of Ipswich Ale Stout (it was very dark; almost chocolatey) and vanilla ice cream. It was absolutely delicious
