Main Ingredients

  • 3 scoops vanilla ice cream Use a high-quality vanilla ice cream for the best flavor, like Häagen-Dazs or Ben & Jerry's.
  • 2 ounces vanilla vodka This adds depth to your float; omit for a non-alcoholic version.
  • 12 ounces orange soda Choose a classic brand like Fanta or a craft soda for a special touch.

Optional Garnishes

  • 1 whipped cream Optional for an extra creamy topping.
  • 1 orange slices For a beautiful garnish and added flavor.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Scoop the three generous scoops of vanilla ice cream into a tall glass.
  • Pour 2 ounces of vanilla vodka over the ice cream.
  • Slowly pour 12 ounces of orange soda into the glass, allowing for foam to rise without overflowing.
  • Garnish with whipped cream and fresh orange slices.
  • Serve immediately with a straw and enjoy your Dirty Creamsicle Float!

Notes

Ensure ice cream is slightly softened for easier scooping. For a thicker float, let the ice cream and soda sit together for a moment before serving. Can customize with different flavored vodkas and sodas to change the overall taste.
