Strawberry Orange Julius


This is one of my personal favorites.. a lil' tart, a lil' sweet, and just right for a Spring or Summer day. Perfect for an all girl's party, or just to make by yourself to sip and enjoy! And as always, this drink is alcohol free :)

What you need: Strawberry Orange Julius

BLENDER

Ingredients:

About 9 Strawberries
1/2 Can Frozen Orange Juice
1/3 Cup Milk or Powdered Milk Substitute
3 Packets of Coffee Creamer
1 Teaspoon French Vanilla Coffee, or Vanilla Extract

How to do:

With your blender cleaned and ready to use, place the frozen orange juice in the bottom of the blender FIRST. Next, place your full tray of ice cubes. Then, your strawberries, coffee creamer
ice cubes, milk or powdered milk substitute, and lastly the french vanilla coffee, or vanila extract.

You're probably wondering why I stressed the fact of placing the frozen orange juice in the blender first, and then the ice. I've learned that ice cubes, when place in the blender first, can sometimes get under the blades of your blender making horrible noises that'll make you think you're permanently screwing up your blender, and besides all that, it messes with the blades and makes your blender litterally dance in a circle on your counter. Scary! I alway think I'm going to break the glass in my blender or break a blade. Anyways..

Set your blender to "BLEND" and let everything blend together for a good 30 seconds or more.. or until everything turns pinkish orange and you can tell everything is blended to satisfaction.

The color and the tiny seeds of the strawberries makes the drink look a wierdish color and looks kinda scary, but I promise this is a crazy yummy drink that you'll love.

I've added the alternatives into the drink because when I was making this drink for the first time, I had to make due with the first ingredients listed, and then had to go back and list the correct ingredients LOL. I personally like the substitute ingredients (powdered milk subsitute, french vanilla coffee.. and no worries, you can't even taste the coffee.. it all mixed together and tastes awesome!), but the "correct" way to make this drink is with the secondary listings (where denoted).

Anyways, leave me your comments and tell me if you like this drink! More to come! :)
