0.5 cup Vegan Whipped Cream
2 Cherries

Directions

Step 1

Ensure that both the vegan vanilla ice cream and root beer are well chilled before starting.

Add more root beer until the glass is almost full, leaving some space for the foam and extra toppings if desired.

Step 5

Top the root beer float with a generous dollop of vegan whipped cream.

Step 6

Garnish with a cherry on top of the whipped cream for an extra touch of classic float presentation.

Step 7
