Sparkling Strawberry Float


If all the menu for the Birthday Party was fun then this mocktail was super fun, said my family. What you need is...

Ingredients

1.5 litres Sprite or any colorless sweet soda
1 cup Strawberry crush
1/2 litre pack of Vanilla icecream

Take 6 large glasses. Divide equally the strawberry crush into the 6 glasses. Slant the glass and pour in the Sprite slowly, to about less than 3/4 level of the glass. Finally lightly drop a blob of icecream on top. The icecream will float atop. 

Insert a bent straw into the drink. Pass around the drinks. Inform the party that it is a sparkling drink so they must not stir vigorously or else they may be showered by a bubbling fountain.

As you stir and sip the icecream forms a cloud over the liquid. The color is a lovely electric pink with a baby pink couldy float. 

Enjoy the drink and that brings us to the end of the Birthday party menu. Hope you enjoyed following this series as much as I did posting it! Before you go away let me tell you there is another interesting theme that is coming up. So see you again after the 20th.

  2. A fitting end to the menu. It looks amazing. And I love to have the fizzy soda in a drink. And of course the ice-cream

  5. Since we have lovely local strawberries, I am going to make this with my own 'crush'! Making fruit purees and using them in drinks has become a favorite of late. Thanks for this idea.

    1. Come winter that's my plan too. Will crush the strawberries and freeze. Yeah I'm hooked too, plus Mumbai weather demands thirst quenchers, in Blr we drank more hot drinks than coolers.

    1. Obviously not for anyone asking that! It is meant for rare indulgence, due to the sugar, the fizz and the icecream. Try it at your risk!
