In a mixing bowl, whisk together the orange juice, heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, pure vanilla extract, and orange zest until the sugar has completely dissolved.
Pour the mixture evenly into popsicle molds, leaving a small amount of space at the top to allow for expansion during freezing.
Insert popsicle sticks into the molds and ensure they are centered.
Place the molds in the freezer for at least 6 hours or until completely frozen.
Once frozen, run the sides of the molds under warm water for a few seconds to release the creamsicles.
Serve immediately and enjoy the creamy, citrusy goodness!
