For best results, start with chilled soda. You can also chill your glass by setting it in the freezer for about 10 minutes beforehand. Pouring the soda first and then adding the ice cream will result in a small amount of foam. If you prefer a float with more foam, add the ice cream to the cup before the soda.
For best results, make sure your ice cream is very cold. If it gets too hard to scoop, you can leave it on the counter for a few minutes to soften. If the ice cream sticks, use a spoon to push it off the scooper into the cup.
Tilt your glass slightly and pour the cola slowly to reduce foam. Fill your cup until the coke is just higher than the ice cream.
Stir until it reaches a consistency somewhere between “ice cream soup” and a milkshake. Add cola to thin it or ice cream to thicken it as you desire.

If you desire a stronger vanilla flavor, add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract.
Don’t pour the yolk mixture into the pan all at once. Scoop it in one cup at a time and mix in-between. This way, the eggs won’t curdle. Slowly stir until your mixture has a custard texture.
Once thickened, place your ice cream into the freezer to set. For best results, let your ice cream harden in the freezer overnight.

If you prefer more of a vanilla tasting float, use 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Make your float stronger or weaker by adding more or less vodka.
You can also add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to make your float creamier. If you desire more foam, drip a scoop of ice cream into your cup over the ice, and add the cola on top.
You can get as creative as you want! You can even use more than one flavor in your float.
You can make a float with virtually any kind of carbonated water, so if you are trying to avoid soda, try sparkling fruit juice! Try mixing fruity soda with fruit ice cream or sherbert.
