Gluten-Free Orange Julius Original

Ingredients:

1 cup ice cubes
1 cup fresh orange juice (about 3-4 oranges)
1/2 cup whole milk
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon powdered egg whites (optional for frothiness)
1/2 cup cold water
1/2 cup crushed ice
1/4 cup orange sherbet (gluten-free)

Instructions:

In a blender, add the ice cubes, fresh orange juice, whole milk, granulated sugar, and pure vanilla extract.

If you want a frothier consistency, you can add powdered egg whites at this stage.

Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and frothy.

Add the cold water and crushed ice to the blender. Blend again until the mixture is well combined.

Finally, add the orange sherbet to the blender and blend until it's fully incorporated into the mixture.

Taste the Orange Julius and adjust the sweetness or thickness by adding more sugar or crushed ice if desired.

Pour your gluten-free Orange Julius into glasses and serve immediately with straws.

Enjoy the refreshing and creamy goodness of this gluten-free Orange Julius Original copycat!
