I didn't see this recipe in time for National Root Beer Float day, but that doesn't mean we can't make them today or this weekend.
They're Root Beer Float Cupcakes! I almost categorized this as Food Porn, but I think the "Mmmm" says it all. You never see the words "root beer" and "cupcakes" in the same recipe, so I'm intrigued. YumSugar not only has a great recipe for the cupcakes but also several handy tips on how to make sure they come out right.

When the recipe calls for 1/2 cup of the elusive liquor, I used 2 parts dark rum and 1 part orange liquor. It was a big hit at the BBQ I took them to. All 24 were eaten up in about 5 minutes, and only 8 people were there.
