Wine and Ice Cream Floats

November 23, 2015

Missouri Wine Floats

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 pint ice cream

1 bottle (750mL) Missouri wine

16 oz of club soda

1 cup fruit

Directions

You can use any glassware you’d like as long as it is can accommodate 16 ounces or so; mason jars work for a fun presentation. To assemble the wine floats, scoop approximately ½ cup of ice cream (this is usually about 2 scoops) into each of the glasses. Pour 4-6 oz. of wine and 3-4 oz of club soda into each of the glasses, alternating a couple of times. This helps mix the float without melting the ice cream too fast. Top your dessert cocktail with fruit and serve with a straw and a spoon. Enjoy!

Flavor Combinations we recommend:

  • Chocolate Ice Cream + Chambourcin Wine + Strawberries
  • Mango Sorbet + Vignoles Wine + Pineapple
  • Vanilla Ice Cream + Concord Wine + Raspberries or Black Grapes
  • Vanilla Ice Cream + Vidal Blanc Wine + Melon
  • Dark Chocolate Ice Cream Wine + Norton + Cherries
  • Vanilla Ice Cream + Sweet Sparkling Wine + Raspberries (If you use this combo for a float, you can skip the club soda and replace it with additional sparkling wine.)
