Butterscotch Dirty Root Beer
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups pebble ice
- 12 oz root beer chilled
- 1 oz butterscotch flavored syrup
- 1 oz heavy cream
- extra butterscotch syrup for drizzling the glass
Instructions
- Drizzle a little extra butterscotch syrup in a thin stripe down the inside wall of the mug before adding anything else.
- Fill the mug to the rim with pebble ice.
- Pour the 1 oz of butterscotch syrup over the ice and let it settle at the bottom.
- Tilt the mug and pour the root beer slowly down the inside wall, stopping when the foam rises near the rim and drops back.
- Pour the heavy cream over the back of a spoon so it clouds the dark root beer into streaks of amber.
- Stir once, slowly, and serve right away: it genuinely tastes like a float.
Good to Know
For a true float version, drop a small scoop of vanilla ice cream in before the soda; just build it in a wider glass so it does not overflow.
