Strawberry Ice Cream Soda

Submitted by Linda B

"A wonderful summertime treat made with sweet, ripe strawberries. Modified from recipe I found in GOING SOLO IN THE KITCHEN."

 

• Ready In: 5mins
• Ingredients: 5
• Serves: 1

ingredients

• 1⁄4 cup crushed strawberry
• sugar
• 1⁄4 cup light cream
• 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 cup chilled club soda
• 1⁄2 - 3⁄4 cup vanilla ice cream (1 large scoop)

directions

1. Sweeten crushed strawberries to taste with sugar (I place strawberries with sugar in blender or processor& pulse a couple of times).
2. Place puree in tall glass; stir in cream and club soda.
3. Add scoop of vanilla ice cream.
4. If desired, garnish with fan cut whole strawberry or sprig of fresh mint.
5. I have used turbinado sugar for a different taste; also can use half& half in place of cream for a thinner, less rich soda.
6. Other berries would work well.

Fantastic and since I have an abudance of strawberries we have been drinking way too many of these! LOL Instead of light cream I used 2 percent milk and they were just as scrumptious!!! Thank you for a great summertime drink that is helping me deal with all these strawberries! Thankyou for a keeper! Jelly :)

This is a really yummy dessert drink that I have had a few times now. I make mine with Ginger Ale. Take a walk down memory lane and have one!
