I tried making the root beer float on the atkins.com site, but the ice separated out from the liquid and it was watery and gross. Is that just the way it is, or did I do something wrong?

LOL, I don't really know because I haven't tried the recipe. I have added heavy cream to diet root beer or diet cream soda but it just isn't a ROOT BEER Float. Today I went to the store and bought some diet RB just so I could make a float with his ice cream recipe. I will let you know how it turns out.
(Its going to be the most expensive RBFloat that I have ever had, heavy cream, vanilla beans add up ) LOL

I just went and looked at the recipe and I think what may have happened is that if you used warm root beer, the ice probably watered it down a great deal. Use the coldest root beer you can find and then try it. BUT it still won't taste like a float, but it is kind of refreshing.
