Beat the heat with a cool Creamsicle Drink. Tang and I wondered if I could recreate the creamsicle flavor in a drink. Yes! Kid approved!
Creamsicle Drink
Last week when our temperatures were near and over 100 for nine or ten days straight, we needed something to beat the heat. I remembered that we had some Tang and I wondered if I could recreate the drink, and this beverage was born! My kiddos loved it!
