This Orange Creamsicle cocktail is your favorite childhood treat as a grown-up drink! You will love this easy and delicious treat.
Cocktails that double as dessert are my favorite! This great orange creamsicle cocktail has been super popular on Simple Joy for almost 10 years!
I decided recently that it needed a photo update. You won’t be disappointed by how delicious and easy this great cocktail is.
How to Make Orange Creamsicle
Step 1: Add Orange Soda
Fill a tall glass with orange soda. Since we aren’t using ice cubes in this recipe, I like to start with a chilled soda.
Step 2: Add Vodka
This option is of course optional, but if you are making an Orange Creamsicle Cocktail, it’s a pretty important step. I usually shy away from flavored vodkas, but in this recipe vanilla vodka, cake vodka, or whipped cream vodka are all really fun options.
Step 3: Add Ice Cream
Stir in a scoop of vanilla ice cream to really complete the vibe of that organ popsicle we all love so much. Then I like to garnish it with an orange slice.
Serving
I love serving these orange creamsicles in mason jars with handles. The ones linked below aren’t the exact mugs pictured here (I got those at Dollar Tree years ago), but I love that these are affordable and come with lids and straws.

Would love to see frozen Sodas with no alcohol, Thankyou dear. Love your site
You can leave the vodka out of this and still really enjoy it. 🙂

Would adding a little vanilla flavoring to vodka take place of cake vodka?
It would work great in this recipe!
