Limoncello Spritz Recipe

Floats are the simplest way to dress up a pint of vanilla ice cream and are my favorite low-lift summer treat. I reasoned that because the Dirty Shirley was the drink of summer 2023, why not make it float-ier for summer 2024?

What's the best thing, then? Only three ingredients—vanilla ice cream, ginger ale, and grenadine—that you most likely already have on hand are required.

Which ice cream flavor goes best with a Shirley Temple Float? Stayed with vanilla for simplicity's sake, but don't let that deter you from trying other flavors.

Since grenadine has a pomegranate flavor, start by combining flavors in different combinations. A delicious place to start would be with some chocolate or cherry ice cream!

Step 1: Pour grenadine into each of two tall sundae glasses.

Step 2: Add ginger ale and place two scoops of ice cream on top of each. If desired, garnish with a cherry.
