Here's an authentic Orange Julius just like they used to make it back in the day. The "secret" ingredient, is powdered milk, merengue (egg white) powder, and powdered vanilla. Back in the mall heyday they used fresh squeezed OJ. and they even tested how fast employees had to squeeze the oranges, you had to be quick. That's really true. For a large, you use a tray of ice, cup of so of OJ, 2/3's to a cup of simple syrup, a full tablespoon of the powdered milk, a full tablespoon of the merengue powder, and a teaspoon of vanilla. I couldn't find powdered vanilla but the liquid seems just fine. Rev up the blender and there you go. Truth be told the real thing is no health drink, it's a full on sugar treat. But that is the real thing, an authentic OJ, when you taste it you'll know it's true.
Very interesting and informative, thanks Robert! While our recipe is refreshing and delicious, it's not quite as frothy as the original we remembered from the good old days at the mall. We appreciate this information!
I remember in the mall in the 80s they would put a raw egg in the blender as well but maybe they make them without them now.I used to be addicted to orange julious.Every trio I made to the mall I would get one of them.
Wow, that's crazy to think about them putting raw egg into it, but that makes sense because it would give it that distinctively foamy texture. I remember getting them a lot at the mall in the 80s too. I especially loved the strawberry flavor. Thanks for stopping by our channel and sharing your memories!
My mom used to get these all the time when we were young and I literally always have a hankering for them. They are so freaking delicious and refreshing it's unbelievable LOL it's like my favorite thing in the entire universe! I love you guys for making this!! BTW I read a lot of comments such as " you should have done this" "Next time don't use this" " I wouldn't have made it that way" etc. Pay no nevermind to that. This is your version of the best Orange Julius recipe out there and it is great!! It is SIMPLE, it is delicious, AND.. If it were changed- well..It wouldn't be your recipe! I love it! If annnnyone prefers different- they can go and make their version and share it lolol. Thank you for making this sweet video! ❤️
Aww, thank you for the sweet comment! We're glad you liked our recipe. It really is simple and helps with those Orange Julius cravings for sure! They remind me of trips to the mall with my mom and grandma. My grandma loved the strawberry ones too!
Yum!! That might be a bit thicker and more rich, like a milkshake. Sounds delicious! Have you tried the frosted lemonade at Chic-fil-a? It’s half ice cream and half lemonade. So good!!
Those O.Julius people lied to you. It is NOT a milk product. My uncle worked there in the 70s and told us what the powder really was. A dried egg white.
I use to make these for my kid’s in the 80’s. I saw it on a tv program. I cup powdered milk, 1 sm. Package vanilla pudding, 2 cups crushed ices all in the blender. Add your orange juice made from concentrate. About three cups. Add more juice if needed to get the right consistency.
This was a recipe that was taught in my Home Ec class 30ish years ago. What was great back then was our local supermarket actually had frozen orange juice concentrate in 6oz cans; we could use 1 can to whip up a batch. Now I have a sudden craving to make this.
My first job at 14 was an Orange Julius stand. I remember a hot dog with everything meant adding .75 cents! I cut up more oranges than I ever thought possible but if I wanted $17 jeans, I was going to have to pay for them myself! I swear back then, we paid per pocket! Those jeans were amazing and I mist have looked cute in them because thats when I met my future husband.
Thanks for stopping by our channel and sharing your memories, so fun!! My first job was at a clothing store called Miller's Outpost, so I could've sold you those $17 jeans, lol! I never went home with any money because I pretty much just spent it all on clothes at the store. We miss the old-school Orange Julius :(
I tried a simple mix, I bought Skittles powdered drink packets and used the orange flavor, 8 teaspoons or pumps of vanilla flavor coffee creamer, 8 ice cubes, and approximately 24 oz of water and blended. Not bad and the only sugar was in the coffee creamer. You could add ingredients to make it your own
Looks delicious. I make my Orange Julius with 1 orange, 1 cup orange juice, 1 cup milk, sugar, vanilla extract, lemon extract and ice. In fact, I am drinking some now as of this comment!
Actually there is egg in the original recipe. I’ve known and used that since the mid 70’s. It’s truly what gives it the whip, hence its old competitor Orange Whip
This is it. Orange juice ice powdered vanilla powdered egg whites. My cousin worked at Orange Julius in the 60’s. She gave me the recipe. You’re welcome.
Hi you guys! Orange Julius is sooo good! Looks like you did great at making the copycat recipe! It’s been about 6 yrs since I worked at Dairy Queen and made these but I remember there were two different powders we put in (one was the milk) but I can’t remember what the other one was. We also didn’t add straight sugar or vanilla. We still have an orange Julius in our mall so I hope that stays open because I love the triple berry smoothie!! Oh and btw.....I had a dream that we were all in Las Vegas again lol
I remember going to the mall and getting an orange Julius from orange Julius in the 90's. I 100% remember the girl putting a raw egg in the blender. Maybe 2 but I think it was one.
Oh my goodess!! We definitely didn't see that, but I think if I had I wouldn't be drinking it again. Yuck! We've heard from other viewers that they used an egg powder, so perhaps that was changed at some point for food safety... let's hope!
@Our80sLife I found out the raw egg was an energy booster and costed extra just like when you go to a smoothie stand and get a shot of energy or protien or whatever added to your smoothie. Anyways eggs are pasteurized in the USA so as long as they are not pink or red they are safe to eat raw.
Thanks for the video, I used to get a strawberry banana Julius for the drive-in on Saturday’s and was bummed that they were discontinued. I have an excuse to buy a blender now!
I have to try this!!! Time for the ninja to put in work lol, Kieth the number one chef lol, I always like the shirts he wears!!!, it came out looking super delicious!! Great video friends :)
Love the hunt shirt🙈 Please do a less sweet one with fresh no sugar added organic OJ, a touch of rind zest, even lemon for color contrast. Haven't seen OJ store since late 1980's in GLMall. Thanks, cool vid U2😋
Really?? Maybe it’s an American thing? They’re in the frozen food section at our grocery stores. I’m sure you could also make this with regular OJ and eliminate the water.
Nice! I don’t like the frozen concentrate, I will use the real orange juice no pulp Tropicana!!! But the next one I will try is using the kerns nectar, stawberry banana!!! Wonder how close that is to the flavor orange Julius used to put out???
I've never heard anyone say they don't like the orange concentrate. That's interesting. You can't taste the orange concentrate directly it tastes just like orange juice with the milk cream mixture. The orange concentrate just gives it more of a kick of orange. There are still Orange Julius locations around. I'm not sure where you live but they do have a location map site on their web address.
I heard that many places I asked the girl the other day she said drink enhancer in French . But they seem to have made a good replica egg white powder is so expensive .
I remember when the Walden Galleria Mall used to have a Dairy Queen/Orange Julius store. I was bummed when they got rid of it. Luckily I know how to make my own Orange Julius drink at my apartment in a really awesome Ninja blender. I have to admit that that Ninja blenders rock!
In NYC papaya hotdogs made orange Julius and it was always made with fresh squeezed orange juice. If your using real vanilla try using real fresh squeezed oranges
You guys definitely are Orange Julius fans!! We have a Ninja bullet and love it. I think I recall you saying that you have never seen a Orange Julius stand alone store? When I was growing up in the 70s/80s our local mall had one and there was a thick black door with the picture of the devil on it (probably the employee area) however I thought it was the entrance to hell lol. I will never forget walking past there and being a little creeped out lol.
looks like making your own orange julius has relieved a lot of stress in your life! :) who knows what was in that powder they used! :) that is indeed a monster blender! :) wow....i want some! :) i'll come back if you make me an orange julius! :)
It’s vanilla pudding a spoon full 1/4 sugar the oj that only 1/4 watered down a banana n a splash of pineapple juice and a splash of milk or half n half creamer
Hi guys that orange julius looks fantastic! I had a Ninja blender to and I let Rodney take it to college and that's the last I saw of it I have to well I was going to say I'll have to see if he's still got it but sadly he's not speaking to me I don't know. I don't know if I had told you or not when Megan died at that's my daughter his mama he was very upset because I had our preacher give a service for her and he is very against church at the moment. He claims to be an agnostic which is better than a full-blown atheist and I've he's never gotten help with grieving. It is hard to lose a parent but especially at the age the boys were. Rodney is 25 now I think and Nathan is 18 and I think Nathan is going to go to grief counseling it was really hard for him to lose his mama. He has never liked School which is a shame because he really is a bright boy, it's not just my prejudice he really is I mean he was chosen to go to the highest reputation High School in the whole County it's almost guaranteed to get you into just about any college he had wanted to go to Miami University just because it's so pretty and because that's where Rodney went. Well let's change the subject! One of Monica's friends spent the weekend with us to help clean out the yard and shed for spring they had about 4 big cans garbage cans full of twigs and branches and leaves that have come down through all the storms we had this winter and spring. Monica mode the grass and Rob mapped out how he wants to trim the shrubs next week. I think he just likes to come over. when my kids were young my house is always full other friends. Megan had lots of girlfriends that would come and stay but Monica always had more guy friends. Not romantically, and actually a few of her best friends AR gay. Rob has been married and has two daughters and last in a couple years ago, he had an aneurysm that his crippled him up pretty badly. Such a shame for such a young guy. well I guess everybody's getting older Monica is 46 now and Rob is 48 and Stephanie holy cow is 53! No wonder I feel so old. Chuckle chuckle! I've got a doctor's appointment tomorrow to check on Kevin, that's my stump if you didn't know, so I have to get to bed early and get up early ugh I'm still trying to get caught up on all the blogs that are that are piling up on me cuz I've been on the reading binge! I'm going to try my hardest to join me in the lounge Friday. Take care God bless and much love Donna
Hi Donna! Sorry to hear about Rodney (and your Ninja blender!) Zoe got one from her grandma to take to college, and when we tried it out that’s when we decided we needed one too, ha ha! Now we’re pretty much addicted to making these refreshing Orange Julius drinks. We’ve both had colds, and they really hit the spot. Keith has been cleaning out our flower beds too, and he’s starting to plant flowers as well. I’m so happy that spring has finally arrived. I’ve been taking Jesse for daily walks so we can both get some much-needed exercise. We wish you all the best and hope Kevin gets a good report at the checkup tomorrow! Love and prayers, Abby & Keith ❤️
back in the '70's my father jewelery shop was on 3rd floor on top of a Orange Julius in Beverly Hills Ca. i loved eating there. was turned off by the drink because i asked what made it foamy, the guy said the *egg* only until they started making the strawberry on i started drinking both orange and strawberry. i would alternate days
The powder we use is called "Flavor Enhancer" it has modified whey solids, maltodextrin, egg white solids, sugar, karaya gum, natural and artificial flavors, more than just a powdered milk lol
When I was little kid in the early 70's there was a franchise called Orange Julius and the recipe cslled for a raw egg Dairy Queen makes a pseudo Orange Julius
Love my Vitamix. Just made one using frozen mango chunks, orange concentrate, soy milk and one egg. It was creamy and delicious, no sugar needed. Why do you like your Ninja blender more?
Thanks for watching our video! We had a Vitamix that worked great, but it finally died after about 12 years. I'd say we got our money's worth for sure! The reason we prefer the Ninja is that scary-looking blade system. Because it has multiple blades on a rotating center piece which is removable, it's able to chop more effectively (especially ice!) With the Vitamix, we often needed to use the tamper and mash items down toward the blade at the bottom. We never have to do that with the Ninja. I think it depends on what you're making, but for frozen drinks the Ninja reigns supreme. Mango is a nice addition - that sounds yummy!
Now that's my kind of recipe, how awesome! Nothing fancy or weird that I can't find! We have a Ninja kitchen system (blender, food processor and 2 smoothie cups) and that thing is awesome! It's held up well too, I think we've had it about 8-10 years. But Keith is right, you gotta be careful with those multi level blades, I have cut my fingers before, ouch. Ha, love the optimism that there will be enough left for another night, haha! Bet that OJ concentrate was strong! I wonder if you could use powdered milk, I have some that needs to be used somehow :) I agree on the real vanilla :) Oh wow, your Ninja is much nicer and newer than ours, we don't have all the fancy buttons, Auto IQ or frozen drink, fancy! Looks great guys, thanks for finding us a good copycat recipe! Have a blessed day ---Stacy
Hi Stacy! We bought this Ninja blender (and it has the other things too) a few months ago, and we are loving it!! I definitely think you could use milk powder because that’s what DQ was using. These drinks are really refreshing. Now we can’t stop making them, lol!!
Sure, I don't see why not. The frozen concentrate worked well to give it a more slushy texture. Maybe try freezing the OJ in an ice cube tray and adding less ice. Thanks for watching :)
Sly11B Enal Hmm... I don’t know. The staff at DQ didn’t mention that. This homemade version will satisfy your craving though. It’s pretty dang close. Thanks for watching our video 😊

I got the idea to just use ice cream instead of the milk sugar and vanilla
Yum!! That might be a bit thicker and more rich, like a milkshake. Sounds delicious! Have you tried the frosted lemonade at Chic-fil-a? It’s half ice cream and half lemonade. So good!!
I just did the same thing and it came out just perfect, for a second I thought am walking at the mall 😉
You can skip the milk and sugar and use sweeten condensed milk small can in it
Great idea! That sounds delicious. Thanks Sheri!
I had the same thought. =]
Those O.Julius people lied to you. It is NOT a milk product. My uncle worked there in the 70s and told us what the powder really was. A dried egg white.
Yep, you could have them use the powder or an actual egg. Would always order with an egg
I think it needs milk.other wise it's eggs and orange
I use to make these for my kid’s in the 80’s. I saw it on a tv program. I cup powdered milk, 1 sm. Package vanilla pudding, 2 cups crushed ices all in the blender. Add your orange juice made from concentrate. About three cups. Add more juice if needed to get the right consistency.
Susan Lett Yum! That’s such an interesting recipe using vanilla pudding. Thanks for sharing 😊
Great video. Thank you both for sharing. Cheers.

Wow I still remember when we were kids at the state fair of Texas I'm taking in the 70s, wish they bring it back.
Oh happy memories, I loved the state fair of Texas!
I totally just tried this and it was amazing. Definitely takes me back to my childhood. I'm so glad that found your video.
That's awesome! We're glad you enjoyed our recipe, thanks for watching!

Looks delicious. I make my Orange Julius with 1 orange, 1 cup orange juice, 1 cup milk, sugar, vanilla extract, lemon extract and ice. In fact, I am drinking some now as of this comment!
Sounds great! Fresh orange would be delicious too. Thanks for stopping by our channel!
Vanilla extract or imitatikn?
5% fat plain Greek yogurt 👍👍
Outstanding work folks. Outstanding.
Thanks James!
Actually there is egg in the original recipe. I’ve known and used that since the mid 70’s. It’s truly what gives it the whip, hence its old competitor Orange Whip
brent holladay Interesting! Thanks Brent 😊
I would add vanilla ice cream❤️
yup I make about the same and add the ice cream! good stuff!
Thats something I havent had in about 20 years. We used to have Orange Julius shops all over in the mid 80's.
Same here, until recently! Now we’re addicted to them, and DQ discontinued them... what are the odds?! Oh well, now we can just make our own 😊
What I use is fresh squeezed OJ from ripe oranges and vanilla coffee creamer.
Oh yum, that sounds delicious! Thanks for stopping by and sharing your recipe!
i loooove the intro
i'll probably never have a dairy queen experiance so watching this is good enough for me
I'll definitely make this! Especially in the summer! Please make more videos like this!😊
Sure thing! Thanks Caitlynn :)
Thumbs up for using real vanilla extract in this recipe!
This is it. Orange juice ice powdered vanilla powdered egg whites. My cousin worked at Orange Julius in the 60’s. She gave me the recipe. You’re welcome.
Hi you guys! Orange Julius is sooo good! Looks like you did great at making the copycat recipe!

Oh and btw.....I had a dream that we were all in Las Vegas again lol
egg white powder?
Just Subbed! Love these! I was born in 1985, and only remember bits and pieces of the 80's but, really enjoy watching! I love the 80's!!
Cool! Welcome to the party Faith :)
Born in 75 ! 1985 rocked !
You guys make a great couple , cheers.
Aww, thanks! Cheers :)
I remember going to the mall and getting an orange Julius from orange Julius in the 90's. I 100% remember the girl putting a raw egg in the blender. Maybe 2 but I think it was one.

Thanks for the video, I used to get a strawberry banana Julius for the drive-in on Saturday’s and was bummed that they were discontinued. I have an excuse to buy a blender now!
We learned how to make it in home economics in middle school. Three videos in and subscribed btw. Great content 🦄🌸🤗
Awesome, thank you! All I remember making in middle school home economics was melba toast appetizers, lol! Your teacher sounds way cooler than mine!
Same here, only thing I remembered from that class, but if I recall, we used vanilla ice cream
Saaaaaame!
I just made it I used a whole can and doubled recipe I think it’s good!
Great! Enjoy :)
I have to try this!!! Time for the ninja to put in work lol, Kieth the number one chef lol, I always like the shirts he wears!!!, it came out looking super delicious!! Great video friends :)
Love the hunt shirt🙈 Please do a less sweet one with fresh no sugar added organic OJ, a touch of rind zest, even lemon for color contrast. Haven't seen OJ store since late 1980's in GLMall. Thanks, cool vid U2😋
Thanks for stopping by our channel! Fresh OJ would be delicious too!
Thanks a bundle for putting this up.
I'll be making your recipe all summer now.
Never tried an orange Julius before. Looks good but I don't know about adding regular white sugar to it. I think I will try Agave instead.
That's a good alternative. I'm sure it would be yummy too!
I tried the orange Julius and it almost tastes exactly like the ones at Dairy Queen
Looks very tasty & very simple to make. 🙂
I was a mall Rat 1982 Never had one ... LONG LIVE Spencer's and the GAP ! Joel
WHAT?! You never had Orange Julius? Not sure we can even be friends Joel ;)
The part where you say BAM is so funny.
Thanks! That's a nod to the great chef, Emeril Lagasse.
Hi Keith and Abby !! That looks really good !! Thanks for sharing.
They turned out great, and now we can’t stop making them, lol!! Thanks for stopping by 😊
Def gotta make it😋😋😋Thanks so much for sharing👍👍👍
You’re welcome! Enjoy 😊
Why did I actually like that intro
A shot of Captain Morgan in place of the vanilla is an adult beverage twist... Hmmm!
Haha Malibu rum 😋
@@espressosplanners7765 yep! That would give it a coconut twist.
Also, y'all are adorable. I am going to see if you've made any other videos, because this is just too cute.
You are so kind! 💖We have LOTS of videos on our channel. Welcome to the party!
It looks easy enough to make, might have to try that sometime soon.
Very resourceful with getting the inside scoop of the recipe, pretty cool!
Yes, it's an easy recipe and delicious! Hope you enjoy!
You need to add a bit of powdered sugar as a binder
It will still taste great and still have a high natural sugar content without adding any sugar,
I've never seen that orange concentrate before!
Really?? Maybe it’s an American thing? They’re in the frozen food section at our grocery stores. I’m sure you could also make this with regular OJ and eliminate the water.
Yay!!! Imma do that very soon :) Thank you guys!!
Yes!! Thanks for watching! Enjoy 😋
That did look pretty tempting!
Nice!
I don’t like the frozen concentrate, I will use the real orange juice no pulp Tropicana!!!
But the next one I will try is using the kerns nectar, stawberry banana!!! Wonder how close that is to the flavor orange Julius used to put out???
Thanks for watching our video Jason! We agree 'no pulp' is the way to go. I've never liked orange juice with pulp. Strawberry banana sounds yummy!!
I've never heard anyone say they don't like the orange concentrate. That's interesting. You can't taste the orange concentrate directly it tastes just like orange juice with the milk cream mixture. The orange concentrate just gives it more of a kick of orange. There are still Orange Julius locations around. I'm not sure where you live but they do have a location map site on their web address.
Orange Julius used to use fresh ingredients.
Aaah, the good old days of fresh ingredients, sigh.
I heard that many places I asked the girl the other day she said drink enhancer in French . But they seem to have made a good replica egg white powder is so expensive .
I remember when the Walden Galleria Mall used to have a Dairy Queen/Orange Julius store. I was bummed when they got rid of it. Luckily I know how to make my own Orange Julius drink at my apartment in a really awesome Ninja blender. I have to admit that that Ninja blenders rock!
In NYC papaya hotdogs made orange Julius and it was always made with fresh squeezed orange juice. If your using real vanilla try using real fresh squeezed oranges
Yum! 🍊
You guys definitely are Orange Julius fans!! We have a Ninja bullet and love it. I think I recall you saying that you have never seen a Orange Julius stand alone store? When I was growing up in the 70s/80s our local mall had one and there was a thick black door with the picture of the devil on it (probably the employee area) however I thought it was the entrance to hell lol. I will never forget walking past there and being a little creeped out lol.
Oh yeah! Real vanilla all the way! I'm glad they were good. Now, I think we are thirsty! :D
Yes!! This recipe is delicious and so refreshing! Thanks for watching and enjoy 😋
looks like making your own orange julius has relieved a lot of stress in your life! :) who knows what was in that powder they used! :) that is indeed a monster blender! :) wow....i want some! :) i'll come back if you make me an orange julius! :)
Thanks Mark! Yes, of course we will gladly make you an Orange Julius. We’re wondering where these have been our whole lives, lol!
Never tried Orange Julius before. Will have to make it and give it a try.
Hope you had a nice weekend :-)
Hi JJ! These would make a yummy treat for Amanda! Hope you enjoy them 😋
It’s vanilla pudding a spoon full 1/4 sugar the oj that only 1/4 watered down a banana n a splash of pineapple juice and a splash of milk or half n half creamer
We hadn't considered adding vanilla pudding, but that's a great idea! Thanks for the suggestion.
How much vanilla pudding should go in?
What's really good is an Orange Julius with a shot of rum, just sayin... :)
Hi guys that orange julius looks fantastic! I had a Ninja blender to and I let Rodney take it to college and that's the last I saw of it I have to well I was going to say I'll have to see if he's still got it but sadly he's not speaking to me I don't know.

Hi Donna! Sorry to hear about Rodney (and your Ninja blender!) Zoe got one from her grandma to take to college, and when we tried it out that’s when we decided we needed one too, ha ha! Now we’re pretty much addicted to making these refreshing Orange Julius drinks. We’ve both had colds, and they really hit the spot.
Keith has been cleaning out our flower beds too, and he’s starting to plant flowers as well. I’m so happy that spring has finally arrived. I’ve been taking Jesse for daily walks so we can both get some much-needed exercise.
We wish you all the best and hope Kevin gets a good report at the checkup tomorrow!
Love and prayers,
Abby & Keith ❤️
We just talked about this over the weekend, we are going to have to try this
Cool! They’re pretty addicting, lol! We’ve made several more batches since this video! 😂
You two make a cute couple. Kudos
You’re too kind. Thanks so much!
A quarter cup of sugar! Well, no wonder it was one of the favorite drinks of my youth.
I know, right?!
Growing up we did orange juice,milk,1 banana and vanilla.
Sounds great! The banana would be a healthy alternative to add sweetness without all that sugar. Good idea!
@@Our80sLife Give it try :) Super yummy!
Same but, if we had it, we'd add vanilla ice cream.😋
The powder is egg whites, not powder milk. You can add milk
back in the '70's my father jewelery shop was on 3rd floor on top of a Orange Julius in Beverly Hills Ca. i loved eating there. was turned off by the drink because i asked what made it foamy, the guy said the *egg* only until they started making the strawberry on i started drinking both orange and strawberry. i would alternate days
The powder we use is called "Flavor Enhancer" it has modified whey solids, maltodextrin, egg white solids, sugar, karaya gum, natural and artificial flavors, more than just a powdered milk lol
So that’s why some recipes call for some egg powder huh?
Sounds healthy. Is orange Julius still in business?
@@Whatitdo1playa no it’s not the original is not available anymore but the smoothies are at some Dairy Queen locations
Sounds very delicious 💖
Thanks Yvonne 😊
Thanks for this vid guys, new sub. What’s the blender called?
foofoo01323 We use a Ninja blender. It crushes ice well! Thanks for watching 😊
I have to try it
Seems straight forward enough I might be able to do that! Haha
I got to try that out haha. It looks so easy to make too. I also like the Ninja! I got the bullet and it works great too.
Great Video...
NOTE: the background music was a little too loud making it
hard to hear you.
Thank you guys for sharing this great video.
I'm new! Very cool Video!
Thanks Rob! Welcome to our channel 😊
When I was little kid in the early 70's there was a franchise called Orange Julius and the recipe cslled for a raw egg Dairy Queen makes a pseudo Orange Julius
Yummmm tfs!
No powdered egg whites?
Sounds delicious! Whew tasting that concentrate will make you pucker up. Haha!!
So true, I don’t know what he was thinking, lol! But with the other ingredients, it’s delicious 😋
That’s probably better then the real thing since you’re using real ingredients
Looks yummy
No sugar. Oj is sweet enough
looks good
BaM! hahaha... might have to try this one out... I love OJ
Lol love your intro
Thanks Klint! Welcome to our channel 😊
I just want your blender!
We got it at Bed Bath & Beyond with a 20% off coupon. It’s not cheap, but totally worth it.
Well, now you can save yourself some trips to the DQ/OJ that doesnt have your Classic anymore. But, tell Keith to be careful with that ninja blade! ;)
True dat. The timing is so weird since we only recently rediscovered OJ, and then like the next week they discontinued our fave drink!! WTH?!
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
How much vanilla? dang
Julius juice sounds interesting. Orange juice and milk together? Lol 😊❤
I know, it sounds like a weird combination, but it tastes delicious!! 😂
Love my Vitamix. Just made one using frozen mango chunks, orange concentrate, soy milk and one egg. It was creamy and delicious, no sugar needed. Why do you like your Ninja blender more?
Thanks for watching our video! We had a Vitamix that worked great, but it finally died after about 12 years. I'd say we got our money's worth for sure! The reason we prefer the Ninja is that scary-looking blade system. Because it has multiple blades on a rotating center piece which is removable, it's able to chop more effectively (especially ice!) With the Vitamix, we often needed to use the tamper and mash items down toward the blade at the bottom. We never have to do that with the Ninja. I think it depends on what you're making, but for frozen drinks the Ninja reigns supreme. Mango is a nice addition - that sounds yummy!
Wow look good I gota try this at home thanks for sharing
I use tang and vanilla icecream..a little water and its perfect
That sounds delicious! We love Tang! Thanks for sharing 💕
You forgot the raw egg ...
Thankfully. Raw eggs are nasty.
Egg white powder,not raw egg.
Now that's my kind of recipe, how awesome! Nothing fancy or weird that I can't find! We have a Ninja kitchen system (blender, food processor and 2 smoothie cups) and that thing is awesome! It's held up well too, I think we've had it about 8-10 years. But Keith is right, you gotta be careful with those multi level blades, I have cut my fingers before, ouch. Ha, love the optimism that there will be enough left for another night, haha! Bet that OJ concentrate was strong! I wonder if you could use powdered milk, I have some that needs to be used somehow :) I agree on the real vanilla :) Oh wow, your Ninja is much nicer and newer than ours, we don't have all the fancy buttons, Auto IQ or frozen drink, fancy! Looks great guys, thanks for finding us a good copycat recipe! Have a blessed day ---Stacy
Hi Stacy! We bought this Ninja blender (and it has the other things too) a few months ago, and we are loving it!! I definitely think you could use milk powder because that’s what DQ was using. These drinks are really refreshing. Now we can’t stop making them, lol!!
Would good old orange juice work?
Sure, I don't see why not. The frozen concentrate worked well to give it a more slushy texture. Maybe try freezing the OJ in an ice cube tray and adding less ice. Thanks for watching :)
I actually make my own vanilla.
Wow!! I bet that’s yummy! 😋
That looks legit! 2% milk?
Oh it’s legit alright. And we went for whole milk, no skimping here! 😂
frozen orange juice concentrate....what fresh American hell is that.
Alex Davies Lol! 😂 Gotta love America!
Isn't it supposed to have egg whites like 1-2 ?? I was born in L.A. I have not had 1 in looooong time tho
Sly11B Enal Hmm... I don’t know. The staff at DQ didn’t mention that. This homemade version will satisfy your craving though. It’s pretty dang close. Thanks for watching our video 😊
@@Our80sLife I made some n they came out good!
@@Our80sLife i read that DQ uses egg white powder but the original was made with egg whites
