Kate in Arabia Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 ..and now for something completely different.. I haven't had an Orange Julius in 100 years, but we had some orange juice that wasn't getting finished, and a bottle of laban (yoghurt-milk drink) that was close to expiring, and this was the best I could come up with.. now I think I'm addicited! Especially after working in the garden, I toss it all in the blender with some vanilla, touch of sugar and a couple of trays of ice -- perfect! Are the Orange Julius restaurants even around anymore? We used to have one in our local mall when I was growing up in Ky, but it closed a long time ago... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcjlkplus3 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Yes, they are still around - at least in Colorado. The kids and I get them whenever we go to the mall and have a little extra $$. The girls and I prefer Strawberry, My husband and son usually get Orange. I've never tried to make them on my own though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I don't think, "Honey, can we go to Colorado on our next vacation so that I can get an Orange Julius?" will go over very well! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klmama Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Hmmm.... I used to love those! I wonder if it would work to make it with honey or stevia. Has anyone tried? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spy Car Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Interesting idea Kate. We drink laban (aka doogh, abdugh, dugh) all the time. I never would have thought about mixing it with orange juice. You are brave. I'll give it a try. All the Orange Julius around here folded, but I sure remember going there in childhood.
