Open the cans of root beer and pour them into a large measuring cup or bowl. Let the root beer chill, uncovered, in the refrigerator for 2 hours. (This is to allow the root beer to go “flat”. You want as few bubbles as possible)
Just before you are ready to make the popsicles, measure out the ice cream into a medium size mixing bowl. Allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for about 5-8 minutes.
Whisk in the flat root beer until smooth.
Divide the root beer mixture evenly between the popsicle molds. Add the popsicle sticks and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the popsicles are frozen through. Quickly run the popsicle molds under hot water to release the popsicles. Keep frozen until ready to serve.

Tips:

If you do not have popsicle molds, you can use ice trays and toothpicks.
Make sure you allow the root beer to go “flat”. You want as few bubbles as possible.
Let the ice cream sit out for 5 minutes or until it gets soft and slightly melted before placing into popsicle molds. This will make it easier to fill each mold and also allows the A&W Root Beer to mix in a bit to create a creamy popsicle.
