PAT Now, y’all know I’m crazy about my ice cream, so sometimes I disregard the set quantities in this recipe and put in ten scoops. Sorry, I just can’t help myself. Gina says I got a real problem. The first step is to admit you have a problem, so here it is. “Hello, my name is Pat, and I’m an ice-cream-holic.” GINA To make this PG drink a little more R-rated, add a shot of orange-flavored liquor (such as Absolut Mandarin) or vanilla-flavored vodka to the juice.

Ingredients

　　8 scoops vanilla ice cream

　　One 16-ounce can frozen orange-juice concentrate

　　2 cups cream soda, chilled

　　Fresh whipped cream

　　Orange zest, grated, for garnish

　　Place two scoops of ice cream in each of four frosty pint glasses. Divide the orange concentrate between the glasses, and top each with 1/2 cup cream soda, stirring to combine. Finish the floats with a nice dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkling of orange zest.
