My Dad loved root beer and often gave in to the craving. It was difficult for him to pass by an A & W drive in. When I was 12, I took a job as a car hop at an A & W in Lincoln, Nebraska, on Friday and Saturday summer evenings. The root beer was served icy cold; even the mugs were kept in a freezer. A side benefit was all the root beer we could drink - not health food by any means but oh, so good. I usually spent some tips on a big scoop of vanilla ice cream for this treat at least once an evening. This sweet drink, also known as a Root Beer Float, takes only a moment to prepare. Sometimes it may be altered with additions of coffee syrup or liqueur, Kalua or caramel syrup, but I go for plain whenever I indulge. Brown Cow 1 or 2 scoops of ice cream or frozen yogurt root beer, icy cold Place the ice cream in a tall chilled mug or tumbler. Pour cold root beer slowly over the ice cream. Serve with a straw and ice tea spoon.
