Recreating the fabled Orange Julius
By adamg - 6/6/09 - 8:34 am
Matt O'Malley reports that with some orange-smoothie powder ($1 at Roche Bros.), some oranges and a blender, you can re-create the Orange Julius drinks of your youth:
... Ambrosia!
The next day I went back to Rochies and bought 5 more packets (there are plenty more in the produce section on a rack across from the pre-made salads, go buy one for yourself -- they also have banana smoothie mix). I've treated myself to one every other day.

Variants of this recipe always have done it for me
no $1 sack of powder needed, and fresh ingredients.
That powder came from something that wasn't powder, anyway...
6 ounces orange juice, from frozen concentrate, unprepared
1 cup milk
1 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
8 ice cubes
Combine all ingredients, except ice cubes, in blender. Blend 1?2 minutes, adding ice cubes one at a time, until smooth.
+ Vodka
As needed.
