Ingredients

  • 12 ounces of frozen orange juice concentrate
  • 2 cups milk 2%. whole milk, skim milk, almond milk, or cashew milk
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups ice cubes

Instructions

  • Pour all the ingredients in the blender.
  • Blend until smooth.

Notes

  • You can substitute fresh orange juice. You can also freeze the orange juice in ice cube trays for a more concentrated flavor and thicker texture. 
  • For a dairy-free version, try coconut milk, almond milk, cashew milk, or oat milk. 
  • Try adding frozen banana, mango, or pineapple for a twist. 
  • Store leftovers in the fridge but keep in mind that the ice will melt, it will become watered down, and the texture will change.
