Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Gummy Bear Float
  1. Start by smearing a light layer of honey around the rim of a clear glass, ensuring even coverage. Dip the rim into a plate of Jimmy Sprinkles, rolling it gently until it’s beautifully coated. Set aside.
  2. Pour Sprite into the prepared glass until it’s three-quarters full, then swirl gently to mix in the flavors.
  3. Sprinkle half a pack of Sonic Ocean Water Drink Mix into the glass filled with Sprite. Stir with a long spoon or straw for about 10-15 seconds until dissolved.
  4. In a small mixing bowl, pour in the heavy cream and whip on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Spoon the freshly whipped cream over the drink, then gently place gummy bears on top for a fun visual effect.
  6. Finish off by adding a straw or mini decorative umbrella for a festive look. Serve immediately to enjoy.
