dairy free blackberry floats

August 28, 2015 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Dairy Free Blackberry Floats. Made with coconut milk ice cream, fresh blackberry sauce and a little sparkling water. So refreshing!

Did you know So Delicious released two new coconut milk ice cream flavors this summer? Cause they did aaaaaand you need to try them. Both of them. One is Simply Strawberry. A classic ice cream flavor, where strawberry is the star of the show. The other is Oregon Mixed Berry and it’s kind of amazing. Marrion berry ice cream with swirls of mixed berry goodness. This girl is always super excited about new, delicious dairy free ice cream flavors!

Since it’s still crazy hot here in California, ice cold drinks are in full effect. I’m always making smoothies and fun, sparkling drinks for my family. My newest creation is this dairy free blackberry float. See that bright pink soda? It’s a mixture of sparkling water and blackberry syrup, made from fresh blackberries. The mixed berry coconut milk ice cream is added and then come the bubbles. Lots of bubbles. Top with a few fresh blackberries and you have a fruity twist on the traditional float.

So Delicious Snackable Recipe Contest

Alright, friends. Here is my “sippable” recipe for the Snackable Recipe Contest. Thanks to So Delicious and Go Dairy Free for the challenge of using So Delicious products in new, creative ways. I now have a huge crush on these diary free blackberry floats. Just about the prettiest floats you ever did see. Fizzy, creamy and oh so berrilicious!
