Yes. Replace the triple sec with 1.5 oz fresh orange juice or orange-flavored syrup for a similar citrus note without the liqueur.
Use cold or tepid espresso as specified. Hot espresso will melt the ice cream too quickly and create a watery drink. Make espresso ahead and chill it if needed.
Use standard vanilla ice cream. Premium or French vanilla will add richness; avoid ice cream with large vanilla bean pieces that can clump in the liquid.
Yes. Double or triple all ingredients, but add ice cream per serving to maintain proper texture and prevent over-melting.
Slice a fresh orange into thin wheels, removing seeds. Serve on the rim or float in the drink for both aroma and visual appeal.
