Maraschino cherry (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the glass: In a tall glass, add two scoops of vanilla ice cream.
- Pour the orange soda: Slowly pour the orange soda into the glass over the ice cream. Pour gently to avoid foam overflowing.
- Top it off: If you’d like, add a dollop of whipped cream on top for extra creaminess.
- Garnish: Garnish with a slice of orange or some zest, and finish with a maraschino cherry for a classic touch.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy this sweet, creamy treat!
Notes
You can swap strawberries for other fruits like raspberries or blueberries to change up the flavor.
For a dairy-free version, substitute the vanilla ice cream with coconut milk ice cream or a non-dairy frozen yogurt.
Add fresh mint leaves for an extra refreshing touch.
