Double Whammy Root Beer Float With Homemade Rootbeer Ice Cream


How many ice creams can one make?
Endless I think.

Root beer ice cream - who would have thought?

My friend Sharon gave me this recipe years ago.
What could be better?
Maybe a root beer float made with it.
Two great treats together.
Did you say you wanted one scoop or two?


I think I will take two, and in a frosty mug too.


And would you mind pouring the root beer in first.  It
helps keep it from overflowing.


Yummmmmy!


That looks perfect.
Oops!


Excuse me for a second.  I have a culinary emergency
on my hands.


Much better. I guess it still can overflow.  Nothing that
a few quick slurps can't cure.

And now for the recipe.

Root Beer Flavored Ice Cream

2 T. root beer extract
2 1/2 C. sugar
2 C. whipping cream
2 c. milk

Mix all of the above and pour into your preferred ice
cream freezer.

2 Quart Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker.



When the ice cream is done processing, transfer it into
a container that you have placed in the freezer for
at least 15 minutes.  Let harden or ripen for 2-3
hours, especially if you are going to make floats
with it.



Or just enjoy it as it is.

Did you say one or two scoops, I can't remember.



Have a refreshing summer.
