Root Beer Float Bars

Is there a drinkable, summertime dessert more iconic than the Root Beer Float? Our answer, objectively speaking, is no, not really. From the sweet, sarsaparilla-y flavor of the soda to the creaminess of the vanilla ice cream, every sip summons a certain nostalgia that’s hard to top. Trader Joe’s Root Beer Float Bars take this soda-fountain classic a step further by marrying all the fun flavors of a float with the portability of an ice pop. Constructed like an orange-and-cream 50/50 bar, they’re fundamentally quite simple—rectangular, root beer-flavored ice pops, filled with vanilla ice cream and served on a stick. (See? Simple.) Whether you’re lounging by the pool, hosting a BBQ, or enjoying a leisurely stroll on a warm summer evening, these whimsical treats are capable companions for a trip down memory lane.
