What wonderful creamsicle type of drink!! And so pretty with the added grenadine coloring!! I didn't take a photo as we are having our roof re-done and there were about 10 guys up there that would be able to see me outside taking the photo and thinking I am crazy, lol!!! I will definitely make this again, although for my tastes, will decrease sugar and corn syrup amounts a bit. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for 123 tag!!

I added a scoop of French Vanilla ice cream to ours and let me tell you, it was truly enjoyed to the max! More like a dessert than a drink, but who cares? It's all good! Such a thirst quencher. We both loved it and will make when we feel like having a real treat!

Wow!! This is one incredible smooth and tasty treat! This combination tastes so much like a Creamsycle ice cream bar, but much better! This drink could easily be combined with a little alcohol for a more adult version. However, this recipe stands on its own and needs no additions or variations of any kind! Once again, Annacia, my chef's hat is off to you!

This did taste alot like a creamsickle! I had some coconut cream leftover so tried it in this recipe and it was very good! I left out the corn syrup, it didn't need it and added just a few drops of half and half. Thanks!
