creamsicle cocktail is a sweet, creamy, and nostalgic drink that combines the flavors of orange and vanilla in an adult beverage. The core ingredients are typically vodka (often vanilla or whipped cream flavored), orange juice (or orange soda), and whipped cream (or half-and-half, ice cream, or orange sherbet).
