# Expert Advice:
01 -
- The combination of tart raspberries and fragrant fresh mint makes every sip feel like a spa day in a glass
- Vanilla ice cream melting into sparkling soda creates the most delightful creamy foam that keeps you coming back for more
02 -
- Work quickly once you add the soda because nobody likes a flat float and those bubbles start disappearing immediately
- Use tall glasses that hold at least 16 ounces or you will have a disastrous overflow situation on your hands
03 -
- Chill your glasses in the freezer for at least 20 minutes before starting because cold glasses keep everything icy longer
- Use the back of a wooden spoon if you do not have a proper muddle and just press gently instead of smashing
