Pumpkin Beer Ice Cream Float in my Tervis Tumbler!

It’s been a busy month, October has just flown by literally!  As part of the Foodbuzz Tastemakers program, I received a Tervis tumbler with the Foodbuzz logo on it in the mail a couple of weeks ago.  The tumbler we got is part of their Smartcup line, which I found out has a lifetime warranty, is microwave and dishwasher proof, has a self warming system for hot drinks and has a technology that prevents condensation rings on your table (no coasters needed!!). 

I put this cup to the test by making a Pumpkin Beer Pumpkin Ice Cream float!!  Earlier in the month I had gone out and had seen this on the menu.  I am a huge fan of both Pumpkin Ale and Pumpkin Ice Cream so I knew I had to try this.  While I didn’t order it while I was out on my date, I kept on thinking about making this for the next couple of weeks.

Pumpkin Beer Ice Cream Float
inspired by a bar in Los Angeles

1 bottle Pumpkin Ale
2 scoops Pumpkin Ice Cream

The float totally held up well in my Tervis tumbler!  Unlike a Coke float, the beer float is enjoyed at a slightly slower pace.  The ice cream did not melt but instead turned into a lovely frosty texture and I had no rings on my coffee table when I was done!  I can’t wait to try out the many uses of my tumbler, next I’ll probably put it to the test to see how it holds up to a hot beverage.  

Have a Happy Halloween everyone!

Pumpkin beer and pumpkin ice cream together?? Yes, please! Sounds like a perfect treat for today!
Oh, I've had beer floats, but not with pumpkin beer or pumpkin ice cream. This sounds SO good. Happy Halloween, indeed!
What a great idea! Both the float and the pumpkin! Hello Kitty is too cute =)
My hubby has similar cups, but then for coffee. They are soo cool! I might need to get your size cups, cuz that float is just calling my name.

Hi, Lindselicious--We were thrilled to see you used a Tervis tumbler for your Pumpkin Beer Ice Cream Float, which by the way sounds a-maz-ing! Double-wall insulation (that’s what keeps the your float frosty or your coffee steamy) is just one reason Tervis tumblers are so fantastic. You can learn more at tervis.com. Cheers!
