This Orange Creamsicle Milkshake is so seriously good that you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it!
I’ve always loved orange creamsicles. There’s just something about orange sherbet and vanilla ice cream that tastes so good together! When I was a kid, it was the one ice cream treat that I always wanted from the ice cream man.
Now that I have kids of my own, I’m always introducing them to my favorite things…my favorite music, movies and of course, my favorite foods. I did creamsicles one better though and the first time my girls tasted this Orange Creamsicle Milkshake, they were totally hooked!
This is a seriously good milkshake! The best part is how easy it is (you know my favorite recipes are the easy ones). You just need four ingredients: orange soda, orange sherbet, vanilla ice cream and a little whipped cream to top it off. You can always add a cherry on top too, for a special touch!
Orange Creamsicle Milkshake
Start by pouring your orange soda into a blender.
Add two scoops of orange sherbet.
Next, add two scoops of vanilla ice cream
Blend, pour into a glass and garnish your Orange Creamsicle Milkshake with orange slices and a cherry.
This is going to be your kid’s new favorite summer treat (and probably yours too!).
This recipe makes enough to share and you can probably split it into four serving instead of two if you’re serving it to the little ones. Me? I’ll take a full glass please!
I’ve made this several times now so if you’ve seen different pictures on Pinterest, it’s still the same recipe…just better pix! Trust me, you’ll want to make this milkshake more than once too!
This Orange Creamsicle Milkshake is so delish that it's going to become your new favorite summer treat! (But don't let that stop you from having one in the winter too!)

Jenna
This milkshake looks really yummy! And your photos are so fun! They just make me happy with all their bright colors!

This looks delicious! I can’t wait to make it for my children. Soda is also a special treat at my house, so they’ll be very excited. We still have an ice cream truck that comes through our neighborhood. My husband thinks I’m crazy, but I get just as excited as the kids when I hear that music.
Lisa
I agree…you never outgrow the excitement of hearing the ice cream truck! Even with a freezer full of ice cream, there’s something about getting your treat straight from the truck that makes it taste even better!

These look really good. I bought my kids twinkies for what might have been the first time two weeks ago. My oldest is 7.
Lisa
I totally need to introduce my kids to twinkies, though I love them so much I may have trouble sharing…LOL!
Krystel @ Planning The Magic
This looks amazing. I’m planning on trying as soon as possible.
Lisa
Thanks Krystel! I’ve never made homemade milkshakes before this but now I think I may have to do it more often. These really were yummy!

How many points is it on weight watchers?
Lisa
Unfortunately I don’t know how weight watchers calculates their points. However, I used regular ice cream and sorbet and Orange Crush, which contains sugar. I’m afraid it might be a little high in points (but fun for a splurge day)
Denise Hinman
Bet Schwans ice cream will be even better. Can’t wait to try it. Especially after doing chores.Thank you.
Lisa
I’ve never tried that kind of ice cream. I wonder if I can find it in Florida.
Norma
Looks good
Lisa
Thanks! Tastes good too 🙂
Cathy
This was always my favorite growing up and I’m proud to say I never outgrew it!!!
