Cherry Cola Float
There are a few sweet treats and desserts I associate with summer 🌞😎: Pavlova, chocolate pizza, ice cream, creamsicles, sorbet, gelato, fruit salad, fudgesicles, tartufo, granita, cobblers, strawberry shortcakes, bumbleberry pie, trifles, etc.
When it comes to beverages with ice cream 🍦 in it, I think of café liégois, milkshakes, slushies, frozen mudslides, and floats.
I’ve been enjoying floats all my life. They’re so yummy 😋! I remember my whole family having that treat, especially when coming back from a day at the beach in Plattsburgh, New York. It was with cream soda (the pink one… it’s more fun, plus it’s my favorite color), and either a big scoop of vanilla or chocolate ice cream… oh yes!
I still have them, and here’s this featured one… Cherry Cola Float! While many use vanilla ice cream, I took mine one step further and used my Black Cherry Ice Cream instead. To amplify the cherry 🍒 taste, I added some of my Cherry Simple Syrup and topped it with Dr. Pepper Cherry Cola.
If you know me, I can’t stand bland food, and like any others, this one is right up there. That’s the reason why I use other ingredients to make it even tastier! Can you use vanilla ice cream instead and skip the Cherry Simple Syrup? Sure, but my version of this cold beverage recipe is out of this world 🚀, and the flavor is exactly what to expect when enjoying a Cherry Cola Float.
Summer and ice cream are everyone’s seasonal pleasure. It’s refreshing, delicious, and so decadent! This Cherry Cola Float is definitely a must-try! With great ingredients, spoil yourself and your family with this tasty cold beverage…😉
Cheers!
