  1. I told myself ice cream, root beer and bourbon did not constitute as a good lunch, but I was pretty certain she wouldn't listen.
     
  2. OH MY, OH MY, OH MY, is that good! I've been drinking root beer and whiskey for a long time and never thought to put a scoop or two of ice cream in it. I can't wait to serve this one to my neighbors. Thanks for posting.
     
  3. Bobby Flay sure does know how to make a drink! This is great! I also had his sangria made by no one better to make it but Him himself!! I did see him mix this up and knew it would be great! Thanks princesskim for posting it! I wouldn`t have enjoyed it if you didn`t. So thanks bunches.
     
  4. This is fabulous....I used Maker's Mark and really good vanilla bean ice cream. Had 2 of them in one sitting, and will have them often. Thanks princesskim for the great recipe!
     
  5. Do you think I could petition A&W to serve these??? At first I thought it was too strong, but with everyspoonful it got better and better, right up to great!!! When you get the creamy ice cream in the blend it almost reminds me of a Baileys like drink!!! I will have a hard time having a regular root beer float now!! Thank you SO much for introducing me to this seductive little drink!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am 32 years old and live in quaint little Carlisle, PA. Currently I am working as an Administrative Assistant for an insurance company. I hope to someday make a career out of my love for food and cooking! Besides cooking, I really enjoy music, theater, and sports. My favorite teams are the Yankees, Buffalo Bills, and Notre Dame. I spend rainy days watching the Food Network. Currently my favorite Broadway show is Wicked...just for the music alone! I saw it in Chicago on a Broadway tour and it was so amazing! The special effects blew me away. My favorite movie is Gone With The Wind- a true classic!
