Orange Julius!!!!

greyford1979

Anybody else make it at home?? Love this stuff, but today I noticed I had some raspberry, grape, apple concentrate in the freezer. So I decided what the hell and made some with this. :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek: Delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not for the faint of heart with the amount of sugar in it but as a once in a few months treat all I can say is mmmm mmmm:D:) I do make a lot of smoothies though that are actually good for you as well;)

In 1979, my third after school job in my life was at orange julius at greenbriar mall in south atlanta.loved the drink, worst mall pizza ever. but where did you get the powder we put in it. is that just baking powder or somthing.

thanks for the trip down memory lane.

That's just powder sugar Scott. They are good. Here is the semi official recipe.

6 oz. frozen orange juice concentrate
1 cup milk
1 cup water
1/2 cup sugar (best practice is use 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 1/4 regular sugar to make creamy)
1 tsp. vanilla extract
8-9 ice cubes

1. Combine all ingredients except ice cubes in blender.
2. Blend for about 1-2 minutes, adding ice cubes one at a time.

I know, that’s a lot of sugar, right? Yeah, no wonder it’s so good

I do miss the old Orange Julius's from back in the day. What a tasty treat they were. It didn't hurt that everyone there smoked, and brought me free drinks to my cigar store daily for discounted cigarettes

Aren't you supposed to use vodka instead of water?

Yep exactly like hockeyboy said it...this was just the first time I ever experimented with a different kind of concentrate. Orange is still my favorite but I think I might try some other flavors after this one ended up tasting awesome as well:D Although mixing them with the pizza rolls I ate wasn't a good idea:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
