What old-fashioned treat will make you moo on a hot summer day?

            

The Bite

A root beer float with an organic kick. Scoop some organic ice cream into a frosty mug, pour over some organic root beer, and cool off with an old-school, saddle-shoe-'n'-Elvis-lovin' treat.

The Benefits

            

• Creamy, tangy, sassafras-y goodness to float your boat.
• Supporting sustainability-focused companies that use organic ingredients and give their (black) cows room to roam.
• A good drinking habit. Using organic root beer and ice cream, and avoiding regular straws (which are often made from PVC), is a healthier beer bet.
