This Jack-O-Lantern Float is such a fun and easy Halloween drink! Made with orange soda, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, Halloween sprinkles, and candy corn, it’s perfect for Halloween parties, movie nights, or an after-school treat.

Three orange drinks in cups decorated with jack-o-lantern faces, topped with whipped cream, candy corn, and colorful sprinkles, surrounded by mini pumpkins, fake spiders, and autumn leaves.

The Second I Saw These Jack-O-Lantern Cups…

A woman with long, wavy blonde hair and a bright smile stands in a kitchen. She is wearing a yellow floral dress with puffed sleeves and white buttons. The background shows white subway tiles and cabinets.

I immediately knew I HAD to make Halloween drinks in them!

Eep! These Jack-O-Lantern floats were SOOO simple to make.

These decorated jack-o’-lantern cups made it so easy, but you could also totally draw jack-o’-lantern faces on clear cups with a Sharpie too!

A hand holds a clear plastic cup with a black Jack-o-lantern face. In the background are orange frosted treats, a small bowl of orange frosting, and a small pumpkin.

All you Need to Make this Halloween Drink

For these jack-o-lantern pumpkin floats, I used vanilla ice cream, orange soda, whipped cream, Halloween sprinkles, and candy corn.

You could pull these orange cream floats off with just orange soda and vanilla ice cream if you want to go the less-ingredient route!

Seriously, These Are So Easy!

Spread frosting around the rim of each Jack-o-Lantern cup and dip it into Halloween sprinkles. Add vanilla ice cream and orange soda, then top with whipped cream, candy corn, and even more sprinkles.

You can even get creative and use whatever fun Halloween candy or sprinkles you already have!

Don’t forget the Striped Straws (like I did 😳😉)

One thing I would do differently next time is add orange or black striped straws! I completely blanked and didn’t order them in time, but they would be SUCH a cute finishing touch.

Even My High Schooler Loved These!

My son Charlie, who’s in high school, got SO excited when I made him one after school! It was such a good reminder that even the easiest little Halloween treats can make an ordinary Fall afternoon feel extra special. :)

And if you’re looking for another Jack-o-Lantern Halloween party food idea, don’t miss these Jack-O-Lantern stuffed bell peppers that are also in my cookbook too!

Definitely save this idea when you need easy Halloween drink ideas for parties, movie nights, or a fun after-school treat!

Wishing you SO much joy this Halloween season!
