This Orange Creamsicle White Russian is a delightful twist on the classic cocktail, combining the rich flavors of coffee liqueur and vodka with the bright, citrusy notes of orange liqueur and fresh orange juice. Creamy and refreshing, it offers a perfect balance between indulgence and zest, ideal for those who love a dessert-inspired drink with a citrus kick.

Ingredients

Scale

Liquor

  • 30 ml (1 oz) vodka
  • 30 ml (1 oz) coffee liqueur (like Kahlúa)
  • 30 ml (1 oz) orange liqueur (like Cointreau or Grand Marnier)

Mixers & Cream

  • 60 ml (2 oz) heavy cream or half-and-half
  • 30 ml (1 oz) orange juice (freshly squeezed for best flavor)
  • Ice cubes

Garnishes

  • Orange zest or slice
  • Whipped cream (optional, for extra indulgence)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Glass: Fill a rocks or old-fashioned glass with ice cubes to chill and create the perfect base for your cocktail.
  2. Add Spirits: Pour in the vodka, coffee liqueur, and orange liqueur over the ice, layering the rich and citrusy alcohols.
  3. Incorporate Orange Juice: Add freshly squeezed orange juice and gently stir to blend the flavors without losing the fizz of freshness.
  4. Layer or Mix Cream: Slowly pour the heavy cream or half-and-half on top for a beautiful layered effect, or stir through to achieve a smooth, creamy texture.
  5. Garnish: Add an orange slice or sprinkle some orange zest on the rim or surface for an aromatic citrus touch.
  6. Optional Whipped Cream: For an extra indulgent, dessert-like finish, top your drink with a dollop of whipped cream.

Notes

  • For best flavor, use freshly squeezed orange juice rather than bottled.
  • Adjust cream type according to preference and dietary needs—half-and-half for lighter texture, heavy cream for richness.
  • This cocktail is best served immediately to enjoy the layered visual effect and fresh citrus aroma.
  • Chill your glass beforehand for an even colder drink experience.
  • Whipped cream is optional but adds a luxurious touch.
