Slightly bitter beer, ice cream, and bittersweet cocoa syrup make for a refreshing float that's not too sweet. Any leftover syrup will keep in the fridge for up to one month.

Ingredients

Makes 6 servings

Cocoa syrup:

2/3 cup sugar

1/2 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder (spooned into cup to measure, then leveled)

2/3 cup boiling water

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Floats:

1 cup chilled heavy whipping cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

6 tablespoons Kahlúa or other coffee-flavored liqueur

Chocolate ice cream

3 12-ounce bottles or 2 pints (about) chilled stout

Special equipment

6 iced-teaspoons

6 straws

For cocoa syrup:
Step 1
搅拌糖,可可粉,撮盐在small saucepan. Pour 2/3 cup boiling water into heat-resistant measuring cup. Whisk just enough boiling water from cup into cocoa mixture in saucepan to form smooth paste (about 3 tablespoons), then whisk in remaining water. Bring to simmer over low heat, stirring constantly. Simmer syrup 1 1/2 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Cool to room temperature. DO AHEAD:Can be made 3 weeks ahead. Cover; chill.
For floats:
Step 2

Place 1 scoop of ice cream in each glass. Add stout, pouring gently down side of tilted glass to prevent too much head from forming. Spoon dollop of whipped cream into each glass.

I made this for the Superbowl using Great Divide's Imperial Stout, in honor of Denver. Tasty.

Served at the end of a summer dinner party, it was fabulous. Incredibly easy to put together, playful and not too sweet. The stout reflected malted notes but subtle. Highly recommend.

I finally got around to making this and was sorry I had put it off. It was a total treat. The sweetness, richness, and bitterness didn't so much blend as mingle so every sip was a delightful surprise.

Excellent! I never thought beer & ice cream could go together - so, much better than expected.

This was very bitter and no one enjoyed it in my family. We like all the ingrediants but together they were not a hit.

The chocolate syrup alone is 4 forks. Just used Guiness and I liked the bitter roast flavor mirrored in the chocolate and coffee. My husband also rates this with 4 forks and his statement was "How can you go wrong...it's a new way to drink". This will be made on a regular basis. Much better than a rootbeer float or a chocolate milkshake.
