Spiked Coconut Cherry Float
As a vodka and soda enthusiast, I appreciate clean ingredients with a little bit of alcohol and a fruity twist. White Claw Seltzer is the perfect option for this, and it's a convenient and delicious beverage made from sparkling water, natural juice, and pure cane sugar. With my bucket of fresh cherries, I opted for the black cherry flavor, which is perfect for an ice cream float.
I substituted coconut cream for soaked cashews to make the vegan ice cream even more coconut-y. Then, I added chopped fresh cherries to the float for an extra burst of flavor. This spiked float has a minimum alcohol content of just 5%, which makes it perfect for those who want a natural, additive-free drink without overdoing it on the alcohol.
As a result, White Claw Seltzer is an excellent option for light, crisp beverages that are ideal for summer float-making.
