Did you all know that I don’t like shopping? Like, at all. The thought of spending money always stresses me out. In fact, I put in a petition last year with my family to cancel Christmas presents.

It didn’t go over well.

But the one thing I DO remember liking as a kiddo when Christmas shopping (or any shopping) was necessary was getting an Orange Julius at the mall. So frothy and tangy.

Dang, I love orange juice.

Did you also know that until I was 18  (and left for college) my dad used to come in my room to wake me up with a glass of orange juice for me to drink in bed every morning?

I know, I know. I was the youngest of three and the only girl – so I’ll admit it, I was spoiled. But to this day, I still like a swig of orange juice in the morning to wake my mouth up.

And an Orange Julius is even better.

PRINT Recipe

  • 2 T powdered sugar
  • 2 T milk
  • 1/2 t vanilla
  • 12-15 ice cubes

Add all ingredients in a blender and blend on high until the ice is crushed and drink is frothy. Actually, I used my food processor because my blender doesn’t crush ice very well.

Enjoy!
