7-up berry floats (1961)
Because the light sparkling flavor of 7-Up gives a lift to any fruit, you can make 7-Up “Floats” with any combination of berries that captures your fancy. Red or black raspberries, strawberries or blueberries give variety to your 7-Up “Floats” all summer long.
To make your 7 Up berry floats, scoop a generous dip of ice cream into a tall glass. Spoon in berries. Then, tilt the glass and pour 7-Up gently down the side. Seven-Up’s lively locked-in carbonation gives it that friendly fizz that makes a 7-up float so distinctively taste-tingling.
These colorful 7-Up Berry “Floats” are so quick to make on the spot that they also provide a perfect picnic idea. Seven UP, ice cream and berries can be toted in an insulated bag or cooler.
