Description
This refreshing Orange Creamsicle Milkshake combines the creamy sweetness of French vanilla creamer with the tangy zest of frozen orange juice cubes to create a nostalgic, smooth, and creamy treat perfect for a quick dessert or snack.
Ingredients
Milkshake Base
- 1 cup International Delight French Vanilla Creamer (liquid)
- 2 cups frozen orange juice cubes (made from store-bought orange juice)
Toppings
- Whipped cream (homemade or store-bought)
- Fresh orange slices (optional)
Instructions
- Blend: Add 1 cup of International Delight French Vanilla Creamer and 2 cups of frozen orange juice cubes to a high-powered blender. Blend on high speed, using the tamper or stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides until the mixture is smooth, thick, and milkshake-like. If the mixture is too thick, add 2 to 4 tablespoons of additional creamer or milk to thin it slightly.
- Layer: Pour about 3 ounces of the milkshake into the bottom of an 8-ounce glass. Add a dollop of whipped cream on top. Pour another 3 ounces of milkshake over the whipped cream, followed by another dollop of whipped cream. Gently swirl with a spoon to combine layers.
- Finish: Top the glass with the remaining milkshake, add another dollop of whipped cream, and garnish with fresh orange slices if desired. Repeat the layering process with the remaining glasses and milkshake.
- Serve: Serve the milkshakes immediately while they are cold, creamy, and fresh to enjoy optimal flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use frozen orange juice cubes made from 100% store-bought orange juice to enhance the fresh citrus flavor and chill the milkshake without diluting it.
- You can substitute French vanilla creamer with regular milk and a splash of vanilla extract if preferred.
- For a thicker milkshake, reduce the amount of liquid added or add more frozen orange juice cubes.
- Whipped cream can be homemade or store-bought depending on convenience and preference.
- Adding fresh orange slices provides a nice presentation and a burst of fresh citrus aroma.
