National Root Beer Float Day 2021: Restaurants Offering Great Deals On The Occasion

National Root Beer Float Day, which falls on Aug. 6, is devoted to celebrating the yumminess of the classic treat that has spanned generations and continues to win hearts to this day.

The key ingredient in creating this drink is root beer, which is an amalgam of aromatic roots and bark, flowers, leaves and berries. The old-world charm of root beer has long been the main ground of its popularity and to top up its appeal, a scoop of vanilla ice cream is added to the chilled frothy drink.

The origin of root beer float dates back to 1893 when Frank J. Wisner of Cripple Creek, Colorado, added a scoop of vanilla ice cream to Myers Avenue Red Root Beer. The idea occurred to him after being mesmerized by the sight of a full moon shining on snow-capped Cow Mountain, which reminded him of vanilla ice cream.
