Say Anything Boozy Orange Creamsicle Shake

The innocence of youthful love before going off to college is one of the most beautiful things about Say Anything, and it’s captured in our Boozy Orange Creamsicle Shake. From Diane Court (Ione Skye) and Lloyd Dobler’s (John Cusack) meeting in a 1950’s style diner, we couldn’t resist making a milkshake that the adults would drink during their time there. It’s reminiscent of childhood, but still holds the boozy shock of adulthood too. Sit down with your loved one, stick two straws in this creamy, sweet cocktail, and share your Valentine’s Day the Say Anything way.

What’s the Best Ice Cream to Use in a Milkshake?

You may have some questions when selecting your vanilla ice cream for this Say Anything Boozy Orange Creamsicle Shake. Like, should you use vanilla or french vanilla ice cream?While the choice is really up to you, a french vanilla ice cream is going to give you a thicker, creamer milkshake due to the use of egg yolks in its base. Vanilla ice cream is still a great option if you prefer something lighter to let the orange and vodka really shine through. But, what about fat content? You can always go with low fat if you’re trying to stick to a dietary plan, however, if you’re willing, higher fat content generally leads to a creamier, richer milkshake. We recommend looking for ice cream with at least 10% milkfat.
