Helpful Hint: I know that once you try this, you’ll want to make it all the time. We’re not as hot as Arizona right now (120 degrees the other day– how is that place not actually in flames?), but we are having multiple days over 100 degrees regularly. Especially when it feels as if we’re melting on the surface of the sun. Since it is only a few simple ingredients, blended together and served immediately, this is one of those that we make often when we need a quick cool down and sugar fix. True, we use most of the same ingredients, but we also add one that we think makes it stand out above the rest. So, I say that this is a Copycat recipe, but it’s actually kind of our own version. I have hopes of visiting every state in the Nation someday.

(Eyes the size of small saucers, rapt attention, sitting on the edge of my seat) “So… um… where are you from?!” Or the Great Depression, when sugar was scarce.

Are you serious? You don’t know what an Orange Julius is?” No. Oh, I chuckled alright, sure they were joking. There’s just nothing that compares to this frozen sweet treat.īecause I’ve had many over the years (*cough* 20+ years), it came as a shock when a friend recently told me they didn’t know what an Orange Julius was. Since then, if there was an choice between ice cream or Orange Julius, I’d go for the OJ every time. I’m not exactly sure how long Orange Julius’s have been around, but I remember first having one in my childhood– maybe when I was 16 or 17.
