Some of my favorite Valentine memories surround sweet treats, like when my grandpa would carefully choose a conversation heart for each of us grandkiddos before we left his house after a visit. So when it comes to making family memories around holidays for my own children, it&#8217;s only natural that I end up leaning towards making a fun treat.<\/p>\n<p>These fun Cupid Floats are a Valentine&#8217;s Day twist on the classic root beer version. To start, you&#8217;ll fill your cup with some Cherry 7Up.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/cupid-floats1.png\" alt=\"cupid floats1\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>Next add on a scoop of classic vanilla ice cream. And prepare for fizz!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/cupid-floats2.png\" alt=\"cupid floats2\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>And as for your straw? Well, a piece of licorice with each end nibbled off will do just fine!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/cupid-floats4.png\" alt=\"cupid floats4\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>If you create a special treat on Valentine&#8217;s Day, this one is simple enough. And my kiddos loved attacking it with their makeshift straw and a spoon. It would make a great family dessert during movie night with Netflix.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/cupid-floats7.png\" alt=\"cupid floats7\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/cupid-floats10.png\" alt=\"cupid floats10\" width=\"800\" height=\"599\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/cupid-floats8.png\" alt=\"cupid floats8\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/cupid-floats9.png\" alt=\"cupid floats9\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/ourhollydays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/02\/DSC_8633.gif\" alt=\"DSC_8633\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\"><\/p>\n<p>With Fuller House premiering this month, we couldn&#8217;t be more excited to gather around our smart TV together and soak in all our favorite characters. DJ was my best friend in my mind and Uncle Jesse will forever be my #MCM.
