Soda fountain drinks in soda fountain glasses

It's hard not to love a root beer float and even harder when it comes in an old fashioned soda fountain glass. These pastel-colored glasses will have you seeing the world through rose colored glasses as you sip a delicious, refreshing, old-fashioned treat in the comfort of your own home. A great way to show these off is to invite a few friends over and set up a grown-up ice cream sundae bar that will let you relive your childhood. The designer also offers banana split boats and appetizer plates in the same collection.

In case it's been a while since you had one, to make a root beer float all you need to do is scoop some of your favorite vanilla ice cream into a large glass and, carefully, pour over a can of root beer. If you pour down the side of the glass, instead of directly on top of the ice cream, you'll be able to reduce the amount of foam you create slightly. Drink it through a straw, but don't forget to keep a long-handled spoon nearby to scoop out all the ice cream!

Even if you let the root beer slide down the side of the glass, you still generate an unmanageable amount of foam, and everyone knows that root beer float foam doesn't just fizz away. Simply fill the glass about one-third full on root beer, add the ice cream, and add the same amount of root beer again. You should end up with a small, but beautiful, cap of foam, and a glass that is mostly full of root beer float.
