Is it a drink or a pud? Whatever your view, one thing\u2019s for sure \u2013 ice cream floats are ideal for hot summer days.

Cherry cola float recipe<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

serves 2
2\u00bd Syns per serving
ready in 10 minutes, plus freezing
vegetarian<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you need:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 x 330ml cans diet cherry cola
2 fresh cherries, to serve<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the ice cream:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

350g fat-free, no-added-sugar vanilla yogurt
500g fat-free natural fromage frais
2 level tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp vanilla extract<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What you do:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. First, make the ice cream. Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl, then spoon into a large lidded freezer-proof container and freeze until solid (about 1\u00bd-2 hours).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Tip the mixture into your food processor and whizz to a thick, slushy pur\u00e9e. Return to the container and freeze again until solid. Repeat this process twice more at 1 to 2-hour intervals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Remove from the freezer 10 minutes before you want to eat, so that the ice cream is soft enough to scoop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Pour the cola into tall glasses and add 2 x 50g scoops of ice cream to each glass (this recipe makes 16 x 50g scoops, so you\u2019ll have plenty left over to enjoy another time). Top with the cherries to serve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
