🎃 Pumpkin Soda Floats

🕒 Prep Time: 5 minutes

🍽️ Serves: 2 (easily doubled or tripled)

📝 Ingredients

• 2 cups pumpkin soda (or pumpkin spice soda) — chilled

• 4 scoops vanilla ice cream (or pumpkin ice cream for extra flavor)

• Whipped cream, for topping

• Ground cinnamon or nutmeg, for garnish

• Optional: caramel drizzle, crushed graham crackers, or cinnamon sticks

👩‍🍳 Instructions

🔹 1. Scoop Ice Cream

• Place 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream into each glass (use a tall soda glass or mason jar).

🔹 2. Pour the Soda

• Slowly pour chilled pumpkin soda over the ice cream until the glass is full. It will foam up — just like a float should!

🔹 3. Top and Serve

• Add a swirl of whipped cream.

• Sprinkle with cinnamon or nutmeg, and drizzle with caramel if desired.

• Serve immediately with a straw and spoon!

🔁 Variations

• Adult version: Add a splash of vanilla vodka or bourbon.

• Pumpkin Pie Float: Use pumpkin pie ice cream and top with crushed graham crackers.

• No pumpkin soda? Try mixing ginger ale + pumpkin puree + pumpkin spice for a DIY version.
