Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh orange juice

1/2 cup heavy cream

1 cup sparkling water (or club soda)

2 tablespoons simple syrup (adjust to taste)

Zest of 1 orange

Ice cubes

Fresh orange slices (for garnish)

Whipped cream (optional, for topping)

Instructions
 

Juice and Zest: Start by juicing the oranges to get about 1 cup of fresh orange juice. Zest one of the oranges and set aside.

    Mix Cream: In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream and the simple syrup. Using a whisk or electric mixer, whip until the mixture is slightly thickened but not fully whipped (you want it pourable).

      Combine Flavors: In a large glass or pitcher, combine the fresh orange juice, orange zest, and sparkling water. Gently stir to combine.

        Build the Soda: Fill individual serving glasses halfway with ice cubes. Pour in the orange soda mixture, filling the glass about three-quarters full.

          Add Cream: Carefully spoon the whipped cream mixture on top of the orange soda in each glass, creating a creamy layer.

            Garnish: Top each drink with a fresh orange slice for a festive touch. Optionally, add a dollop of whipped cream on top.

              Serve: Stir gently to mix before sipping, and enjoy your refreshing Orange Creamsicle Soda!
