With summer heating up, there’s no better way to cool down than with everyone’s favorite refreshing summer sip – a Root Beer Float! Just in time for National Root Beer Float Day (August 6th), I wanted to touch base to recommend the perfect sidekick to your vanilla ice cream, Virgil’s Handcrafted Root Beer.
Every ingredient in Virgil’s is all-natural – which means no preservatives, no aspartame and no artificial colors. Better yet, Virgil’s offers a Zero Sugar Root Beer option as well that is zero calories and certified ketogenic for those looking for a healthier rendition of the summertime treat.
See below for Virgil’s classic Root Beer Float recipe! Cheers!
