I used a bit less ice cubes. What I kept tasting was the vanilla extract, but overall this drink was less than what I expected. I will use less vanilla extract next time.

Very good! I use to make an orange smoothie that needed so much more to make it, and this tastes so much better with half of whats needed for my old recipe. Amazing!

I love snowmen and the name is what drew me to this one. I really like this recipe! I used half the sugar and it was plenty sweet. The flavor is so bright and shiny and the texture is great. I will definitely make it again :) The one thing is I can't decide what it IS- is it a breakfast drink? Dessert? Snack? Whatever it is, it's very yummy and right up your alley if you're a lover of orange things! I think the reviewer below me must have accidentally used a tablespoon of vanilla extract or is really sensitive to vanilla flavor or something because the vanilla is not at all overpowering. I'm not a fan of the vanilla-orange-cream flavor combo usually (an orange flavored medicine I had to take as a child completely turned me off to all things Creamsicle) and I think it's just dandy in this recipe. The dominant flavor is definitely orange and the vanilla just adds a little something subtle.

OK..seriously. What is UP with the vanilla listed? YOWZA. That was one seriously strong recipe. Totally will leave the vanilla out next time!

HUGE hit! To make it creamier, I used fat free evaporated milk and I upped the vanilla to a full two teaspoons for a double batch. My three men loved it--GREAT christmas morning beverage! NOTE: I did double this only because I read through the reviews and there were a few people who said that for four servings, it was small. So, doubling it was a must for me.

Great summer drink for kids. The creamy taste and texture defies the relative healthiness of the beverage. We used skim milk and cut the sugar in half to a 1/4 cup - still really good.

This was like an orange creamsicle in a glass! I cut out a bit of the sugar and added a bit more vanilla. My 2 year old would have drank the whole pitcher if I let him! Thanks for the yummy idea!
