Do you think it would work with Diet Fiery Ginger beer.Have been drinking loads of the stuff just recently.Trying to shift my last half stone of excess weight....keeping off no alcohol beer.:D

Ginger is a bit more 'volatile' than your average fizzy drink, so caution is advised, but I don't see why not, in principle.....


mmMMmmm - ginger beeeer :drool: :drool:

It was my cousins who used to have the floats. I was round there one summer afternoon and one of them said "Lets have a cream soda". I thought they were going to open a bottle of Cream Soda. I couldn't believe my eyes when they poured out lemonade and then plopped a scoop of icecream in it! I wondered what on earth they were doing!:shocked:

I didn't have any myself and so I have a question:

Do you eat it with a spoon or drink it???

Ah well. What you have to do is to poke the ice cream down in to the {insert pop of choice} with a spoon or straw. VERY carefully, as the froth produced can be quite voluminous. Keep scooping off the froth and eating that (with said spoon or straw). Eventually it will mix together, which you then drink

It's a science, you know.......

Sounds complicated. :think: The amount of froth must depend on how fizzy the pop is. I expect there's a formula for this.
