    In the mid 90’s they served this at my elementary cafeteria. It was only available for a short time. It was even in those small cardboard containers. Not sure if it was a taste test or someone ordered them by mistake. They where a quarter, same as the regular or chocolate milks.

      I grew up poor as a kid and me and my brothers always dreamed of gobbling up all sorts of sugary snacks. One summer we got a hold of three cartons of vanilla ice cream and several 2 liter bottles of root beer. We had just heard about how to make root beer floats, so we made the biggest ones we could and gorged ourselves on it all in one sitting.

      We got so sick and unwell hours later … we didn’t lose it through diarrhea or vomiting but our stomachs felt like someone had taken a basebat to us … we’re Indigenous so we were all lactose intolerant.

      I haven’t had a root beer float since.

    So I’ve had this from a different brand that also does orange milk, cotton candy milk, and premixed cold brew milk.

    The root beer milk tastes like a root beer float without the texture. Like it you let a root beer float thaw, then put it in the fridge, you’ve got root beer milk.

    I give it a 7/10. Not bad, not recommendes fro cereal or Mac and cheese.
