How cool is this - the cocktail version of a root beer float. A heaping scoop of vanilla ice cream topped with your favorite Irish stout (in this case Guinness). The ice cream works as a sweetener to the rich beer, resulting in a delicious, drinkable dessert.Scoop ice cream into a pint glass, and pour in enough stout to fill it. One pint of ice cream and one 12-ounce bottle of beer will yield 2 servings.

ok so the Irish stout is great for St. Pattys day and all, but this float is tasty with a Chocolate Stout, like Rogue or Bison. try that!
ReplyDeleteeek...have you tried this? I wonder if it is really good or not?
ReplyDeleteThis recipe has been taped to my fridge for a few weeks now. I'm trying to decide if I'm brave enough to try it on St. Paddy's Day, or if I'll just eat the ice cream by itself. :)
ReplyDeleteI will ask my future bro-in-law if this is how the irish do it up! ha!
ReplyDeleteI am not much of a guiness fan, but maybe that would help me out!
