Sometimes the best thing about summer is indulging in things that remind you of your childhood...fat slices of watermelon, hot dogs and french fries, and most of all, treats from the ice cream truck!

This week's cocktail is an adult take on a kids' fave!

The iconic Creamsicle flavor is one that instantly takes you back, and this is a super easy way to recreate it while keeping the drink light and refreshing!

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 oz. vanilla vodka
  • 2.5 oz. orange juice
  • 1 oz. cream soda

Combine all ingredients in a rocks glass with ice. Garnish with an orange slice, and enjoy!

Switch it up:

Use more or less of each ingredient to suit your tastes.
For a more orange-y flavor, use orange vodka instead of vanilla.
Try orange soda instead of cream soda.
Try flavored rum instead of vodka.
Combine the vodka and orange juice with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, then top with the soda for a really indulgent treat!

*Please drink responsibly.*
