Ingredients
Orange Julius Ingredients
- 12 ounces frozen orange juice concentrate
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup whole milk
- 1 cup vanilla ice cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups ice cubes
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Add the frozen orange juice concentrate, granulated sugar, whole milk, vanilla ice cream, vanilla extract, and ice cubes to a blender.

Notes
- For a thicker and creamier drink, use full-fat vanilla ice cream.
- Adjust the sugar to taste if you prefer a less sweet or sweeter drink.
- Use fresh orange juice if frozen concentrate is unavailable, but reduce the amount of milk slightly for balance.
- Serve immediately as the drink is best enjoyed fresh and chilled.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute the milk and ice cream with plant-based alternatives.
