I haven't had a root beer flavored popsicle in a long time. That would really hit the spot right now.
I know, I know, it has nothing to do exactly with National Root Beer Float Day, but it got me thinking about root beer. How did root beer, something I drank all the time when I was a kid get pushed out of the picture in favor of Diet Pepsi and other sodas?
Here's a recipe for a root beer float (it's very basic, just root beer and vanilla ice cream). How about a root beer float cake?
And just to make you feel bad, A&W Restauants gave away free root beer floats on National Float Day, which was June 21, the first day of summer. Sorry!
