Soda Shake using Vanilla Ice cream and Soda Pop. Mixed in the Blender with Ice cubes. Just the Perfect Drink for Hot Days. Pretty much a Float, except the whole drink is blended. Instead of a Milk Shake where Milk and Ice Cream are combined, we combine Soda and Ice cream for a Soda Shake.
You can serve it up like a Float, but I prefer mine mixed well into a Soda Shake not stirred.
Base Soda Shake
The base is 1 tray of Ice Cubes and Ice Cream. That’s it. But to this we can add a bunch of different types of Sodas and get numerous Soda Shakes.
There are different types of Vanilla Ice Cream that can be used as well. Such as French Vanilla Ice cream and even other types of Ice Cream such as Orange Ice Cream to use with Orange Fanta.
Soda Shake Variations
Orange Cream Shake
This is a very nice drink, reminiscent of the Orange Creamsicles you can buy in the stores. Simply add in Orange Fanta. Optionally, with some orange juice or use Orange Crush.
Root Beer Shake
This is taking it back to the Root Beer Float days, when they used to serve a Glass of Root beer and a Scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream. Here we are simply blending it into a homogeneous drink.
Dr Pepper Shake
Add Dr Pepper Soda.
Holiday Special
Peppermint Ice cream mixed with Sprite
You get the Idea. Add any Soda to create a Unique and Refreshing Drink. Mountain Dew and Cream Soda are others that offer good flavor as well.
Top these off with Whipped Cream and some Sugar Crystals.
