Recipe needed...because I need a DRINK!

I'm having a party on saturday and want to serve dreamsicle mimosas. I know part of the ingredients are orange juice, sugar and cream, but I can't remember the exact portions. The mixture is then frozen. Can anyone help me?

This is a recipe I found for it:
4 oz champagne
4 oz orange juice
Generous splash vanilla syrup (such as Torani)
Generous splash half-and-half

I would think you could subsitue a teaspoon of sugar for the syrup since it's a concentrated sweetner.

Forget the dreamsicles. I went to a party last night and they served Purple Haze Martinis.
1 oz pom. juice
1 1/2 oz Hypnotique (sic)
1 1/2 oz pineapple juice
Put all in a shaker. Serve in a martini glass with a wedge of lime
They were Yummy!

(With the exception of welding, I can't think of a course I haven't taken!!)

This is from my bartending-school book:

CREAMSICLE/DREAMSICLE

1 part vodka
1 part triple sec
2 parts OJ
2 parts cream

Shake with ice and strain into a stemmed cocktail glass.

(If you put it all in a blender with the ice, you would have a frozen drink without actually freezing it.)

I don't know about the mimosa part, though--normally a mimosa is OJ and champagne, although another book says to put a couple splashes of Grand Marnier in it.

Mimosas . . . brings back memories. It was a tradition in my neighborhood for all of the mothers to get together for a mimosa party the first day the kids went back to school in the fall . . . .

...It's funny..a couple years ago..I wanted an orange soda when I was in a bar with a bartender friend. He said..awwww..ya can't drink that straight..and told the bartender to add a shot of Vanilla Stoli to it. And I have to tell you..it took me on a little adventure..because that was a really good drink...Since then...I've added about a half shot of Triple Sec to it...and I think it's the perfect drink for a summer evening when it's too hot to drink a beer...

...My recipe... 12 oz. of orange soda, 1 shot of Vanilla Stoli, and half a shot of Triple Sec over ice in a large glass....
