slo’s TUESDAY 7/11 poll - Root Beer Floats

[lanejudy]

Oooh, I just saw A&W has a zero sugar root beer. I may need to get some of that plus ice cream on my next shopping trip.

 

[Micca]

They're ok, I don't really drink/eat them. I'd prefer just ice cream or a shake

 

[tvguy]

I like Root Beet and Ice Cream, but never really got into Root Beer Floats. Been decades since I had one.

 

[Disneylover99]

I don’t like ice cream with my root beer.

I no longer drink root beer floats but do have good memories of doing so both at home and with children at various school and camps I have worked at. Dad loved them. I used to like them made I think with Hansens Root Beer because it was smoother and sweeter and Ben and Jerrys chocolate vanilla something ice cream...don't recall now what flavor just that it was sure tasty! Sweet memory indeed. thanks Slo

Occasionally...they can be a bit sweet sometimes though

I love them, although I use diet root beer now. When I want something "decadent" for dessert and don't have any ice cream, I'll put about 3T of half-n-half in a glass and then fill it up with diet root beer. It's a sham, but it's tasty enough to satisfy my craving for a treat!

 

[TeresaBelle]

I love them, but they have to be made with chocolate ice cream. Not a fan of anything vanilla flavored.

Same here!

 

[slo]

I would say I love them, especially with good ice cream. Haven't had one in years though. Had a few every year as a kid. Black Cow here though not root beer float.

This is what we‘ve always called them too

Enjoy diet root beer/floats but really like making my own floats with Diet Dr Pepper

THIS I would love to try

 

[bobbiwoz]

I love them, but haven’t had one in years.

 

[Meriweather]

I used to love them but diabetes fixed that for me.

I use sugar free soda and low carb ice cream......still good!!

 

[E&Cmom]

I like them but don’t get them very often.

 

[mylilnikita]

I haven’t had one in years .
A favorite memory is when I was little and my grandfather took me to Woolworth lunch counter and get them.

 

[OKW8297]

Not a fan of root beer

 

[MamaMermaid]

I don't like soda (or anything carbonated) so it's a no from me.

 

[Moliphino]

I don't think I've had one in decades, so I have no idea if I'd still like them. I've lost some of my tolerance for sweet.

 

[Scotgirl]

Root beer tastes like liquid Germolene

 

[PollyannaMom]

I voted "edible" - I like root beer occasionally, and I like ice cream, but I'm less a fan of mixing them together.
