Ingredients

• 2 cups Orange juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought)
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon Orange zest (optional, for extra flavor)

Directions

Step 1

1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the orange juice, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and optional orange zest.

Step 2

2. Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the sugar is completely dissolved. This may take 2-3 minutes of continuous mixing.

Step 3

3. Pour the mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top of each mold to allow for expansion as it freezes.

Step 4

4. Gently tap the filled molds on the countertop to release any air bubbles that may be trapped in the mixture.

Step 5

5. Insert popsicle sticks into the molds. If your molds don’t have built-in stick holders, you can let the mixture freeze for about 1 hour until it starts to set, then insert the sticks to ensure they stay upright.

Step 6

6. Freeze the popsicles for at least 6 hours or overnight, until completely solid.

Step 7

7. To release the creamsicles from the molds, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to loosen them.

Step 8

8. Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, citrusy delight!
