This easy orange julius recipe is delicious and takes only a few minutes to make.

I remember back in the day my mom would take me to the mall. Dark brown tile floors; cold, hard seating areas in the middle of the mall; and a really awful smell. It was classic 1970s. Not sure what was up with that smell though.

We would get new shoes at Stride Rite and I would drop my old shoes into the barrel on the way out, a Dum Dum root beer lollipop in my hand, given to me by the salesperson. And then we would walk. We would walk through that dark brown mall. And down at the end of the dreary mall, there was that bright Orange Julius sign. I always loved how the orange popped against the blah brown of the mall. I never asked my mom to stop but maybe I should have. The first time I actually had an Orange Julius was just a few months ago at (you guessed it) a mall.

I wondered why I had waited so long to taste something so delicious. It was instant love. And I knew I had to figure out how to make the orange julius recipe for myself.

Did you know that this recipe takes only about 5 minutes to make? 10 minutes if you’re like me and you forget to place the blades into the blender before the ingredients and you get an orange julius waterfall cascading over your counter and onto the floor. Don’t be like me! Make sure your appliances are put together properly.
