Orange Juice Slush

This Orange Juice Slush is so good, so creamy, orangey, and refreshing! It is super simple and super quick to make your own slushies. In just 5 minutes, with 5 ingredients, and 4 steps, you can be in orange creamsicle heaven.

Why I love this recipe

This slushy drink is creamy in color because we aren’t adding any artificial coloring. This easy recipe is similar in flavor to an Orange Julius, Push-up pops, or an Orange Creamsicle Ice Cream Bar.

Simple Ingredients

(amounts are listed in the recipe card at the bottom of the post)

orange juice

heavy cream

white sugar

vanilla extract

ice cubes

Substitutions

Change it up by using frozen strawberries instead of ice cubes. 

Or swap out the sugar and cream for healthier choices. But!!! I think it’s a PERFECT delicious treat just the way it is.

You can also use whole milk, or ice cream instead of heavy cream but it will change the slushy consistency a bit.

Pro Tips

I use 2 ½” crescent shaped cubes. If your cubes are smaller or bigger you may need to adjust the number of cubes to get a medium thick slush.
