We used mason jars but the floats would be pretty in ice cream float glasses. You might also want to grab a few of the longer straws. I like to get the ones in fun designs but any will do.
Sometimes, you can find pretty glasses at the dollar store too. I’m always looking for a good deal.
It is so easy to make a Fanta Float!

I think people would love making their own float. Set out a bunch of cups and everyone can just make what they prefer. So fun and really inexpensive too.
We were actually swimming the last time we made these and and it didnโt take much work to get the kids out of the pool to try these ice cream floats. They were all eager to try them.
Every single person loved it and asked for more! It’s rare everyone likes the same thing around here. But we are all fans of ice cream floats. They are just so yummy!
