Root Beer Float

(Courtesy of Parents)
Root-Beer Float
 
Ingredients:
8 maraschino cherries, stemmed, drained and patted dry
4 c. root beer (before using, chill in bottle with cap loosened)
2 1/2 c. vanilla ice cream, softened
 
Directions:
Place a cherry in each of 8 molds or paper cups (6-7 oz.).  Fill halfway with root beer.  Tilt to get the angled design and freeze until almost firm, 1-2 hours.
 
Add ice cream and insert stiks.  Cover and freeze for 1 hour.  Slowly add more root beer, skimming off any foam, until the molds are full.  Cover; freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm.
 
Remove from the freezer.  Let stand at room temperature for about 5 minutes before unmolding.
