lmao youre back!

+rep, good survivor and positive player who told me ggwp in postgame chat. I was the trapper in the anniversary event.

The concoction would start to foam up and sometimes spill over (of course we would lick the sides of the glass when that happened). The foam would eventually recede a bit and we would get another dose of root beer to top us off.

Then we would poke at the ice cream with our straws until it dislodged from the sides of the glass and floated to the surface.

Spoon a scoop or two of vanilla ice cream into a tall glass. Slowly pour root beer into the glass, allowing the foam to rise and then recede before adding more root beer.

Serve with straws and spoons.

Do you remember the first time you had a root beer float?

I do. I must have been around 7 years old and we were visiting my grandparents in Phoenix, in the summer.

Have you ever been to Arizona in the summer? Must be why I find Sacramento so tolerable. Let's just say it's hot.

I still remember all of us greedy kids, still in our swim suits, having been cooling off in the pool all day, lined up in the kitchen, wide eyed as we watched my father scoop ice cream into tall glasses, and then slowly pour root beer over them.

+rep Mug all the way

GOAT has arrived.
