This recipe marks the last of our popsicle recipes for the year. Labor day has come and gone and while there are a few weeks of summer left, fall flavors are starting to dominate our recipe idea list. Even though it’s the last popsicle recipe of the year, it’s one of my favorites. It’s super easy to make–just whip the ingredients together, pour into the mold and let the freezer do the work.
These popsicles bring back memories of drinking root beer floats as a child. Root beer floats were something special in my family. We had them only once or twice each summer. I remember how I loved to watch the root beer boil up as my mother added ice cream to the soda. My favorite part was slurping up the foam that erupted over the edge if she added a little too much ice cream too fast.
Enjoy!

Would it work the same with coconut milk(fat) instead of heavy cream?
I haven’t tried it so I can’t guarantee it, but I think it would work! The taste might be a tad more ‘coconut-ey’ so you may want to balance this out with a bit extra root beer extract. It won’t thicken like cream when whipping, but coconut cream is much thicker to start so it shouldn’t be a problem. I hope you enjoy them!
Oh baby yes! I LOVEEEEE root beer and I love vanilla – put the two together and it’s pure magic!
What other sweeteners could be used? I do not want to use it with ret what other sweeteners could be used? I do not want to use erythritol. Does the Stevia has to be granulated? What about Monk fruit or a combination of Stevia and Monk fruit? Thank you for this recipe

Hi Lynne,
With this recipe, you could probably just sweeten to taste with whatever sweetener you prefer.

great
nice
Where do you find root beer flavoring?
With candy making supplies? Our selection is limited in the baking aisle. What brand did you use?
TIA
Hi Davette,
I’m pretty sure I got the root beer flavoring on Amazon.There are several brands available. Because the potency might vary, you might want to add only half the amount and taste to see if you need more.
Best,
Annissa
