There’s nothing like the tastes of our childhood to bring back fond memories, even now that we’re adults. In fact, most of us can still get excited when we hear the sound of the ice cream truck. And, who can resist the taste of its delicious and decadent delicacies. Only now, many of us enjoy them in drink form. But, even our adult treat can be saddled with calories.

But, now it seems you can have your cocktail and drink it too with some low-cal treats that taste just like the “real think”.

How about a creamy guilt-free creamsicle martini? It’s only got 109 calories, 0g fat, 69mg sodium, 2.5g carbs, 0g fiber, 0.5g sugars, 0g protein.

Orange Creamsicle
Martini
Recipe courtesy of Lisa Lilllien
Ingredients:
4 oz. diet orange soda at room temperature
1.5 oz. orange-flavored vodka (like Smirnoff Twist of Orange)
1.5 oz. Torani Sugar-Free Vanilla Syrup
1 tbsp. Cool Whip Free
Directions:
Place all ingredients in a martini shaker, but DO NOT shake (or the carbonated soda will explode!). Mix
thoroughly with a spoon until mixture is mostly lump-free. Add about 1 cup ice (crushed, if you've got it),
and stir until mixture is cold. Then place the strainer on top and pour into a large martini glass. Enjoy!
Makes 1 serving.
