Ingredients:
- 2 cups orange juice (freshly squeezed or store-bought)
- 1 cup heavy cream or coconut milk (for a dairy-free option)
- 1/4 cup honey or agave syrup (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Mix Ingredients:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the orange juice, heavy cream (or coconut milk), honey (or agave syrup), and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined.
- Taste and Adjust:
- Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more honey or agave syrup.
- Pour into Molds:
- Pour the mixture into popsicle molds, leaving a little space at the top for expansion as they freeze.
- Insert Sticks:
- Place the popsicle sticks into the molds. If your molds don’t have slots for sticks, you can cover the molds with foil and then poke the sticks through the foil to hold them in place.
- Freeze:
- Place the molds in the freezer and let them freeze for at least 4-6 hours, or until completely solid.
- Unmold and Enjoy:
- To remove the creamsicles from the molds, run warm water over the outside of the molds for a few seconds to loosen them. Gently pull the creamsicles out and enjoy!
Tips:
- For a creamier texture, you can use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
- If you prefer a stronger orange flavor, you can add a bit of orange zest to the mixture.
- These creamsicles can be stored in the freezer for up to a month, so you can always have a refreshing treat on hand.
