Ingredients
2 cups chilled orange juice
2 cups vanilla ice cream
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup orange soda or club soda
1 cup ice cubes
1 cup whipped cream
4 maraschino cherries
4 orange slices
Instructions
1. Chill 4 serving glasses in the freezer for 5 to 10 minutes.
2. Add orange juice, vanilla ice cream, milk, vanilla extract, and ice cubes to a blender.
3. Blend until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and pale orange.
4. Taste and adjust the texture with a splash of milk for a thinner drink or another scoop of ice cream for a thicker drink.
5. Pour the creamy orange mixture into the chilled glasses.
6. Slowly stir in orange soda or club soda until lightly bubbly.
7. Top each glass with whipped cream, a maraschino cherry, and an orange slice.
8. Serve immediately while cold, creamy, and fizzy.
Notes
Add the soda after blending so the drink stays fizzy and does not overflow in the blender.
Use chilled orange juice and cold glasses for the thickest, frostiest texture.
For a sweeter soda-shop flavor, use orange soda. For a lighter citrus flavor, use club soda.
