Sling it Yourself: How to make a Creamsicle Cocktail
Everyone loves the cold icy smooth taste of frozen drinks but no one likes the fuss, the muss and the mess of dragging out the blender. But here’s a way to get that refreshing goodness without the hassle: The Creamsicle.
You guys are going to have to trust me on this one. No one thought milk and Pepsi or ice cream and root beer would taste good together either.
What you will need:
1 oz. Vodka or Orange Vodka
1 oz. Triple Sec
1 oz. Orange Juice
1 oz. Milk (or cream if you prefer)
Shaker tin and mixing glass
Cordial/collins/high ball glass
All the ingredients are equal parts so you can’t really go wrong with measuring. Pour everything into a glass filled with ice. Pour contents into a shaker tin, cap with the mixing glass and shake vigorously. Return the contents to the glass. Garnish with a tall straw and a slice of orange.
*Use a scoop of vanilla ice cream or frozen yogurt instead of milk and ice to make a Dreamsicle.
** And for a richer flavor add 1/2 oz of Amaretto.
