A&W’s iconic Root Beer Float is back for a limited time to kick off the hot summer season.
It marks the return of a ritual Canadians know and love: slowing down, leaning in and savouring every frosty sip, said the company in a news release.
“The A&W Root Beer Float isn’t just a drink; it is nostalgia in a frosty mug for generations of Canadians. The dreamy combination of velvety, creamy vanilla ice cream paired with fizzy, crisp, ice-cold A&W Root Beer captured many Canadians’ sweet summer memories, which earned it a cult status. Even when it disappeared from the menu, the memories lived on with Canadians who patiently waited and demanded its return. And now their wish has come true,” said the brand.
“At the heart of it all is A&W Root Beer, Canada’s favourite Root Beer. The secret recipe has long been loved for its bold, refreshing flavour, signature creamy finish, and unmistakable bite of spice that sets it apart from the rest.”
“There is something magical about the connection Canadians have with our Root Beer Floats,” said Susan Senecal, CEO and President of A&W Canada. “They are woven into the fabric of Canadian summers, from nostalgic road trip pit stops to savouring a float in the frosty mug with the whole family. We’re excited to revive this tradition today, inviting both long-time fans and a new generation to enjoy this timeless treat together.”
A&W is bringing back the iconic Root Beer Float for a limited time.
A&W is Canada’s original burger chain with over 1,100+ restaurants that are Canadian-owned and operated.
