Summer Jam Floats

A classic ice cream float is the ultimate summertime treat, and these jam floats are proof positive. Scoops ofvanilla ice cream融合与汽水和浆果果酱季节性verage that’s sweet and refreshing. Using cream soda creates a silky vanilla-forward base while a splash of fresh lemon juice cuts through the sweetness and adds a pop of welcomed tartness. Part of the jam is mixed into the base, allowing it to distribute throughout the soda, while the remaining jam is smeared up the sides of the glass so you get pops of berry flavor as you drink it.

And you don’t have to stick to berries, feel free to mix and match with whatever fruit jam your heart desires. For the best texture, make sure your jam is free of seeds and/or large pieces of fruit; pass it through afine-mesh sieveor quickly purée it in afood processororblenderuntil smooth if needed.

To help ensure your float stays frozen until the very last sip, chill your glass in the freezer for at least 10 minutes before serving.
