Notes
- For the best texture, use orange juice concentrate that is still very cold and only slightly softened.
- Add the ice slowly so it blends evenly and creates a frothy texture.
- Whole milk makes the creamiest drink, but 2%, skim, or non-dairy milk can be used.
- For a berry Orange Julius, add strawberries, raspberries, pineapple, or frozen fruit.
- This drink is best served right away. Leftovers can be frozen into popsicles.
- If the drink is too thick, add a splash of milk or water. If it is too thin, add more ice.
