Raspberry Peppermint Floats
- 2 cups Frozen Raspberries
- 1/2 cups Sugar
- 3 cups Seltzer Water
- 4 cups Peppermint Candy Cane Ice Cream (See Note)
- 4 whole Candy Canes For Garnish
- In a medium sauce pan, heat the raspberries and sugar over medium low heat. Let simmer slowly for about 5 minutes, until the sugar is dissolved and the berries are broken up. Add the berries to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Pour this mixture through a fine mesh sieve to get out all the seeds (if you don't mind seeds, you can skip this pain-in-the-butt step). Chill the raspberry puree.
- Get out 4 smaller glasses and in each glass add 1 tablespoon of the raspberry mixture. Pour in about 3/4 cup seltzer water to each glass and gently stir in the raspberry puree. Scoop one large scoop of peppermint ice cream to each glass and garnish with candy canes.
- Note: if you have a hard time finding peppermint candy cane ice cream, you can make your own. Simply smash 4 candy canes to smithereens, then mash them in to 4 cups vanilla ice cream. Freeze until you are ready to assemble the drinks.
