A Valentine’s Day Float, topped with fun candy skewers, is a fun and festive way to celebrate Valentine’s Day.
Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and we are getting ready to celebrate one of our favorite days with a Valentine’s Day Float. It is a spin-off of the traditional root beer float. Strawberry pop poured over top of scoops of vanilla ice cream, served in a glass that has the rim dipped in marshmallow fluff and sprinkles, makes a fun and festive Valentine’s Day drink.
Add wooden skewers of red and pink candy to your Valentine’s Day float. Gummy candy seems to work the best to thread onto wooden skewers. Some of my favorite Valentine’s candies are Trolli Sour Brite Hearts, Nerds Gummy Clusters, Dots Valentines, and strawberry gummy hearts.
Use a cookie cutter and cotton candy to make another fun skewer. Simply flatten some cotton candy, then use a heart shaped cookie cutter to make a heart. So fun and festive!
Dip the rim of the glass in marshmallow fluff, then festive sprinkles. Can you see a theme here yet? Sugar, sugar, and more sugar.
No float is complete without vanilla ice cream! Add as many or as few scoops as you would like.
Slowly pour the strawberry pop over the ice cream, and then add candy skewers for a fun (and sugary) Valentine’s Day float.

Sugary Cheers to a Happy Valentine’s Day!
