Dreaming of fluffy clouds in a glass? Time to whip up a Soda Float—the perfect sweet treat that’s as fast to make as it is fun to drink. With creamy whipped topping and fizzy bubbles that build as you stir, this is pure retro joy in liquid form.
The best part? You can use any of your favourite Red Elk Mixing Syrups. Try Portello for a classic throwback, Ginger Beer for a spicy twist, or Lemon Lime & Bitters when you want something extra zesty. Whatever you choose, it’s all good foam from here.
🥤 Ingredients
- Your favourite Red Elk Mixing Syrup (Portello, Ginger Beer, Lime, Lemon Lime & Bitters, Sarsaparilla... they all work!)
- Chilled soda water
- Vanilla whipped cream
✨ Method
- Using a 1:5 ratio, pour 1 part Red Elk Mixing Syrup into your glass (we love a highball tumbler).
- Top with 5 parts chilled soda water. Adjust syrup to taste if you prefer it sweeter.
- Add a generous swirl of vanilla whipped cream on top.
- Stir with a straw and watch the creamy foam rise!
Simple, nostalgic, and endlessly customisable—Soda Floats are fizzy fun for all ages.
