Nutrition Recipes Peach Floats

Peach Floats

June 7, 2016 by Live Healthy Iowa
As summer begins to heat up, you may be looking for a cool refreshing drink for those hot afternoons. With peaches in season, why not give this refreshing drink a try? These Peach Floats are especially great after a workout as they are full of calcium. Not to mention, they are made with club soda, a carbonated water that is the forerunner of sugary soda pop.

Ingredients

1 Can (15 ounces) peaches, drained, except for 1/2 cup juice
4 cups vanilla ice milk
32 ounces club soda or seltzer water
1/2 cup reduced-fat whipped topping
Ground nutmeg, to taste

Instructions

In a small bowl, mash the peaches with a fork. Divide the mashed peaches into 4 glasses (12 ounces each). Add to each glass 2 tablespoons of the peach juice and 1 cup ice milk. Pour 1 cup soda or seltzer into the glasses. Top each drink with 2 tablespoons whipped topping and a dusting of nutmeg. Serve immediately.
