Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tub (8 ounces) frozen reduced-fat whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
3/4 cup cold diet or regular root beer (I used regular)
1/2 cup fat-free or regular milk
Root Beer Extract to taste. (strength can vary greatly by brand)
1 package (4 serving size) instant vanilla pudding mix
1 graham cracker crust (store bought or homemade)
8 Maraschino cherries

Steps:

Combine the root beer, milk and pudding mix in a large bowl.
Mix with a whisk until it begins to thicken. Fold in half of the whipped topping and desired amount of root beer extract. Start with just a little of the extract and give it a taste. You can continue adding more until desired flavor is reached. Spread into the pie crust. Refrigerate for 5 minutes. Top with remaining whipped topping.
Slice the pie into 8 even slices (this makes it really easy to cut when it's frozen). Add a cherry on each slice.
Freeze 8 hours or overnight.
