An Orange Creamsicle Shake is a yummy mix of creamy vanilla and a punch of orange soda. This milkshake is a classic flavor combo that everyone just adores.
Homemade milkshakes are so fun to make plus it costs just a fraction of what it costs at a restaurant. Especially in the warmer months of the year, my kids and I like to shop for new ingredients and come up with our own milkshake recipes. This orange creamsicle one might just be our favorite!
Orange Creamsicle Shake
This recipe is very easy. You are essentially just going to gather your ingredients, put them in a blender and enjoy. Sounds pretty doable, right? Let’s get started.
Ingredients You Need
- Vanilla Ice Cream – We used Ben & Jerry’s but any brand will do. Keep in mind the slight flavor difference between plain vanilla, vanilla bean, etc.
- Orange Sherbet – One of my favorite desserts all by itself. It adds great flavor to this shake.
- Orange Soda – We used Crush but Fanta or any other brand will work great, too.
- Whipped Cream – Just to add on top. Find my best homemade whipped cream recipe here.
- Cherries – This is really just for presentation, so it’s optional.
How To Make An Orange Creamsicle Shake
When I said this was really easy, I meant it. Here is all you need to do to make your creamsicle shake.
- Put a scoop each of ice cream and sherbet in a blender.
- Add the soda and blend until it’s a frothy, milkshake consistency.
- Pour in a glass and top it off with whipped cream and a cherry.
If you want to add another fun garnish you can slice an orange and add that to the side of the cup and a striped orange paper straw. Another fun option would be to skip the cherry and go for some fun, bright sprinkles!

Back in the 50s our grandfather who make up a couple of batches of popcorn and “cows” (ice cream shakes) for us grandkids on a Friday evening watching tv. There were several varieties made from Nehi sodas: orange, strawberry, grape, root beer, vanilla and cola. Orange and vanilla were my favorites. I’m over 70 years old and I still make them . They bring back such wonderful memories. Thank you for sharing.
