The Summer temps are starting to creep up and I’m so ready for them. Nothing says Summer like a root beer float. This recipe makes an adult one which is always fun. It’s always nice to do something other than the traditional bar set up. Think outside the box with a boozy float bar or adding a popsicle to champagne or to flavor a cocktail. There is so many cute ideas to use. Why should the kids have all the fun!?
