These chocolate root beer floats are a slightly more decadent version of the classic diner treat. Created by Alex Caspero on the blog Sugar and Cloth, the recipe is also a boozy one, making it perfect for grown-ups who still feel like a kid on the inside. The three ingredient cocktail is also a fun and festive drink choice for any Halloween parties because it looks like a bubbling cauldron with enough imagination.
To recreate the chocolate root beer floats, you only need scoops of chocolate ice cream, vanilla vodka and root beer. You can also add a drizzle of chocolate sauce for garnish, or extra chocolate chips. For a skinny version, you can opt for diet root beer and forego the added chocolate.
