Not the same as an ice cream soda, cream sodas have a soft rather than astringent fizz to them, and a foamy head that lasts a long time.

Cream Soda was originally a carbonated beverage made not from root, as root beer is (sassafras root), but rather from actual dairy products. Early cream soda included water, sugar, egg, and possibly milk and/or vanilla (mixed with sodium bicarbonate to make fizz)

Crush Cream Soda is generally considered vegan. It contains no dairy, egg, or other animal-derived ingredients. However, it does contain sugar, which may have been filtered with animal bone char.

Though Big Red has classically been marketed as a "red cream soda", its flavor is described as "deliciously different" for a good reason. The unique taste of the soda has been compared to everything from bubblegum to cotton candy. The real flavor is a combination of lemon and orange oil along with vanilla.
