For those that have tried all of the versions, which of these is better, aka more like an actual creamsicle? I know I have made one, but I don't remember which! The one I had tasted JUST like a creamsicle!

These are the three I've found on here. If there's another one that tastes just like the real deal, I'd love to have that too!

Orange Plunge-Sicle
1 pint vanilla ice cream, slightly softened, 2 cans (12 oz.) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed, 6 cups milk, 1 can (15 oz) mandarin orange slices, undrained and mashed
Place all ingredients in the family sized Quick-Stir Pitcher and plunge until thick and frothy.

Crème-Sicle Punch
Half-gallon of orange sherbet and vanilla combined (the half and half package), 2 liters of Sprite or 7-Up
Place all ingredients in the family sized Quick-Stir Pitcher and plunge until thick and frothy.
*Variation: Use any flavored half-gallon of sherbet

Creamsicle Cooler
6 cups (1 1/2 quarts) orange juice
1/3 cup grenadine
1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened
 
hmmm, the one I use is:
1 cup Vanilla Vodka
1 2 liter Orange Crush
1 pint french vanilla ice cream (nothing with bean pieces-ick)
Plunge GENTLY and try not to drink too much, very easy to overindulge and then not be able to walk straight!

Well, that definitely sounds like a yummy stiff version! I'll be trying that for sure!

Anyone have an opinion on the non-alcohol versions?
 
Haven't tried any, but they sound nummy, especially that last one! Must try that!
 
oooohhhhh.... I think I might have some vanilla vodka :) (I bought a bottle 3 yrs ago. Used it once in a failed attempt at choc. maritinis...) Wonder if DH would get some ice cream & orange crush on the way home???
 
This one tastes just like a creamsicle - especially if you do half lemon lime soda, and half orange soda!


MILK PUNCH

INGREDIENTS
4 cups milk
1 quart orange sherbet, softened
1 pint vanilla ice cream, softened
1 liter lemon-lime soda


DIRECTIONS
In a mixing bowl, beat milk, sherbet and ice cream until frothy. Pour into a punch bowl. Stir in soda. Serve immediately.

Ah, THAT'S the one I had, I think! I know it had orange sherbet in it, and none of the other ones did. Thanks, Becky!

I had a host (who is actually one of my best friends) make this for a PC party at her house.

I usually don't eat or drink anything at shows except for a glass of water - but I kept going back for more of this! The bad thing is, it sorta stole the show! It's so good!
 
I'll be stealing this. I always use the QSP at my shows and I sell a lot of them because of it. If I don't use it for one reason or another - I don't sell any. It a great add on item and people don't think twice about adding it to their order at the end.
