I do not mean to cause any consternation for or to affect the mental well-being of the new Blue Bell Dr Pepper Float ice cream (assuming, of course, that a dairy product can have feelings), but does this product really need to exist? I mean, I am completely inept in the kitchen\u2014making Kraft Mac & Cheese is expert-level stuff for me\u2014but even I can pour a glass of Dr Pepper and drop two scoops of vanilla ice cream in it. I can report, though, that this does indeed need to exist because it is rather glorious.<\/p>\n
Part of the wonderfulness is the simplicity. It\u2019s just vanilla ice cream with Dr Pepper-flavored sherbet. An ice cream float is a classic combination because it needs not to be messed with or improved. So this is delicious because it delivers exactly what it advertises\u2014creamy ice cream and soda flavor.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The sherbet portion tastes exactly like the famous soda. I don\u2019t believe there\u2019s any actual Dr Pepper soda in here, as it appears the only non-ice cream ingredients listed are \u201cnatural and artificial flavors,\u201d so I have no idea how Blue Bell replicated the taste.<\/p>\n
When the vanilla ice cream starts to soften, the creaminess is a bit more noticeable, creating the perfect complement to the distinctive Dr Pepper taste. So take your time enjoying this, at least as much as you can, considering there is a fine line between soft ice cream and liquid ice cream.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
If you are concerned that the mixture of ice cream and sherbet will be strange, it\u2019s not. If the label did not tell me this contains sherbet, I wouldn\u2019t have guessed it. The texture of the sherbet is perhaps a little firmer with a touch more grittiness, but it\u2019s only a minor difference.<\/p>\n
The only thing missing from this, compared to a \u201creal\u201d float, is the carbonation of the soda. Luckily for you, I\u2019m here to answer the question you are probably asking right now. How would a Dr Pepper Float float taste?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
It\u2019s quite good, which is not surprising, but I preferred it sans the Dr Pepper liquid. When mixed with Dr Pepper, I found that the creaminess of the ice cream got overpowered a bit, so what I ended up with was a slight Dr Pepper overload. It was still tasty, and I\u2019d probably make it again, but it did not deliver the amazing taste sensation I had imagined.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
Neither Dr Pepper nor Blue Bell are my go-to choices in their respective categories, but together they form a powerful team, and this is now one of my favorites. Plus, it saves me at least a minute or two on the laborious task of combining two ingredients to make a Dr Pepper float.<\/p>\n
