# Adult Beer Float Cocktails The Boozy Ginger Beer Beverage is Nostalgically Topped with Ice Cream By M | Published 2016-02-05 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beer-float References: [bromabakery](http://bromabakery.com/2016/02/boozy-ginger-beer-floats-recipe.html) This Boozy Ginger Beer Float recipe by lifestyle blog [Broma Bakery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/talenti-frozen-treats) offers an adult-friendly version of the iconic root beer float comfort drink with slightly more sophisticated and mature ingredients that will please a more mature palette. The drink contains added alcohol as well, as a fun [cocktail spin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holiday-hosting) on the classic children's dessert drink. While the Boozy Ginger Beer Float might look the same in appearance to a conventional root beer float, the differences lie in the ingredients used that come together to form more robust and rich aromas. For example, the drink is made using bitter ginger beer and lime juice rather than root beer for a more tangy taste. The drink is topped with rum for added sweetness and a pint of vanilla ice cream that turns the drink's texture creamy as it continues to melts. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 33% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Adult Beverage Desserts:** Opportunity for creative food and beverage combinations in the dessert space by incorporating traditional adult beverages with classic desserts - **Mature Ingredient Cocktails:** Develop mature and sophisticated drinks by using premium ingredients and combining them into classic and iconic cocktails - **Boozy Twists on Children's Drinks:** Innovative cocktails with a playful twist on beloved non-alcoholic beverages ### Sectors Adopting This - **Hospitality:** Hotels, bars and restaurants can innovate their drink menus with these adult beverage desserts and mature ingredient cocktails - **Beverage:** Opportunity for beverage companies to create new product lines by bringing unique adult flavors to classic dessert beverages - **Alcohol:** Liquor companies can develop the perfect ingredients that blend into non-alcoholic beverages seamlessly and creates a new drinking experience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Hard Seltzer-Infused Floats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cherry-cola-ice-cream-float.md) - [Alcohol-Infused Ginger Beers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bundaberg.md) - [Warming Ginger Beer Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spiced-rum-ginger-beer.md) - [Beer-Infused Ice Cream Bars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miller-high-life-ice-cream-dive-bars.md) - [Boozy Tropical Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tipsy-scoop-100-coconuts.md) - [Old Fashioned Root Beer Floats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mug-root-beer-float.md) - [Spiked Ginger Ales](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reeds.md) - [Creamy Frozen Root Beers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frozen-root-beer-with-sweet-cream.md) - [Creamy Boozy Desserts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-cream-and-wine.md)
