Refreshing Summer Drink

My family loves Orange Julius’ but I rarely make them because our copycat recipe calls for quite a bit of sugar.  So last week I revamped the recipe to make it healthier and include food storage items.  I like it just as well and now I can feel good about making it much more often.  Here’s my new version for this yummy summer cooler:

COPYCAT ORANGE JULIUS

1 c. unsweetened frozen orange juice

1 c. milk (can use powdered milk and increase water)

1 c. water

1/3 c. Xagave (agave nectar)

1/2 tsp. Sweet Vanilla Powder

ice cubes (add until you reach desired thickness)

  1. Before the advances in sweeteners,about 30 years ago,I made a drink my boys loved. Equal parts unsweetened orange juice and plain yoghurt and 1/2 to 1 tsp vanilla. Put in blender, or use hand mixer. Now with their own kids, my boys still serve this healthy beverage.
