Jude's preschool teacher shared this recipe with us after she made these for his
class during "orange week." They were a huge hit with the kids and Jude
was especially excited to enjoy this school treat at home.
(And who can resist a little extra vitamin C this time of year?)
Orange Julius:
6 oz. frozen orange juice concentrate (half of a frozen can)
1 cup milk
1 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 ice cubes
(**I found it was easy to get the concentrate out of the can by running a knife around the edge of the can first.)
Blend all ingredients together.
Enjoy!
Wow. I'd never think of mixing OJ and milk together. We'll have to give this a try.

ReplyDeleteOh We LOVE Orange Julius... I remember Every time I would go to the Mall I had to find the Orange Julius before I went shopping... LOL!!! Thank you so much for stopping in and linking up with me at http://shoprubyjean.com/2012/01/sew-crafty-tuesday-7-and-winner/
ReplyDeleteWe used to make this ALL the time when I was growing up, and make it occassionally for my kids. However, my husband and I were just talking about how long it had been since we'd made it. I just bought oj a couple days ago so I could make it again. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is too amazing.... you are probably too young to know, or maybe in the wrong part of the USA, but where I grew up in California there were little fast food type places called Orange Julius. Fast forward to this week. It popped into my head and I thought, hey I have to make those - it sounds good. Then today, I see your post on a link party. Perfect timing!

Back in the 80's, Orange Julius played a big part of our lives. We had one at our local mall and my daughter worked there a little during high school. We loved the drink so much....they used a powder, mixed with orange juice and water. I am anxious to try your recipe. Thanks so much.
ReplyDeleteI haven't had an orange julius for ever! I am going to have to use the recipe and make me one. That sounds delicious!!
ReplyDeleteI currently have a link party going and would love for you to share this.
