Orange Creamsicle
Enjoy a summer treat in drink form with this orange creamsicle cocktail recipe featuring vodka, coconut milk, orange juice and other sweet ingredients.
Time to make: 5 minutesServes: 1*
Inspired by orange sherbert-coated vanilla ice cream pops, this boozy variation is lightly creamy thanks to a coconut milk base (not to mention vegan-friendly) and bursting with harmonious flavor. Ketel One Vodka adds delicate notes of fennel and sweet licorice, while orange liqueur provides a little extra oomph to the orange juice. Vanilla extract adds a rich sweetness to the cocktail. For a casual backyard affair, pour it into a wine glass or use a coupe for a more sophisticated serve.

Directions
- Using a sharp knife and a cutting board, remove a long slice of orange skin, leaving as little pith on the peel as possible. Gently curl into a twist and set aside.
- Combine ingredients in a cocktail shaker with ice.
- Shake until combined and strain into a coupe or a wine glass with fresh ice.
- Twist the orange peel over the drink to express the oils, then add as garnish. For a more playful serve, add a colorful straw.
