Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) cold milk
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) orange juice
  • 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar

  • 1 1/2 cups (about 12-15) ice cubes
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon powdered milk
  • Optional: 1/4 cup heavy cream or half-and-half

Instructions

  1. Add the milk first. Pour 1 cup (240 ml) of cold milk into your blender.
  2. Add the orange juice. Pour in 1/2 cup (120 ml) of orange juice.
  3. Add the vanilla and sugar. Spoon in 1/4 cup (50 g) of granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. If using powdered milk or heavy cream, add it now.
  4. Add the ice last. Drop in 1 1/2 cups of ice cubes.
  5. Blend on low for 10 seconds to break up the ice.

Notes

For best results, use cold milk and cold orange juice. Layer ingredients correctly: liquids first, then dry ingredients, then ice. Don’t over-blend to avoid a watery drink. Adjust sweetness to taste.
