A fun and festive Halloween-themed float combining the citrusy fizz of Fanta Orange soda with creamy vanilla ice cream. Perfect for parties and easy to make in minutes, these Jack O’Lantern Floats offer a spooky twist on a classic soda float treat.


Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 (2 Liter) Fanta Orange soda (or Fanta Mini Cans)
  • 1 container vanilla ice cream
  • Clear plastic cups, decorated if desired


Instructions

  1. Pour Fanta: Pour a small amount of Fanta Orange into the bottom of a decorated plastic cup to create the base of your float.
  2. Add Ice Cream: Add a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of the Fanta in the cup, allowing it to start creating a creamy layer.
  3. Top with More Fanta: Slowly pour more Fanta Orange over the vanilla ice cream until the mixture becomes foamy and bubbly, filling the cup.
  4. Serve: Repeat these steps to make additional floats, serve each with a fun straw, and enjoy your festive treat immediately.

Notes

  • Use chilled Fanta and ice cream for best results and maximum fizz.
  • Create a spooky theme by decorating the cups with Halloween stickers or markers.
  • For a stronger pumpkin theme, add a pinch of pumpkin pie spice to the vanilla ice cream before pouring the soda.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the foam and bubbly texture before it settles.
  • Fanta Mini Cans allow for easier portion control and less waste.
