National Root Beer Float Day is the day when people celebrate the Root Beer Float, basically root beer with a scoop of ice cream.
Native Americans invented root beer. The root beer float was designed by Frank J. Wisner in Cripple Creek, Colorado, in August 1893. Legend has it that Wisner, while thinking of how to provide soda to the townsfolk of Cripple Creek, saw the snow on top of Cow Mountain, which reminded him of vanilla ice cream. Being the Owner of the Cripple Creek Cow Mountain Gold Mining Company, he also owned a bar. Wisner added a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the Myers Avenue Red Root Beer. He liked the taste, so he served it to his customers the next day, and it became an instant hit.
Root beer is part of Native American heritage, a beverage created from sassafras or sarsaparilla root. Charles Elmer Hires was the first to produce root beer in 1876 commercially.
