Take a trip down memory lane or just create some new memories, when you make this old fashioned ice cream soda recipe. 

These days, I usually opt for a smoothie or milkshake, but an ice cream soda is a fun change that is even easier to make. 

You don’t need a blender or other special equipment. 

I really like serving a soda in an old fashioned soda glass, so the treat has that retro look. 

But you can use a mason jar or other glass, if you don’t have soda glasses.

When you add the chocolate syrup, let it drip down the inside wall of the soda glass. 

It looks great and you’ll get the chocolatey taste throughout. 

This soda is topped with whipped cream, mini chocolate chips and a maraschino cherry. 

Feel free to add sprinkles or other toppings, if you’d like. 

This is a wonderful treat for a warm Summer day, a birthday party or family movie night. 

Enjoy!
