Somehow over the years (almost 16 now) we have found new traditions and ideas for date nights (plus a few kids) that have put our Scrabble game on the top shelf. It had been several years since I'd had an orange julius when I stumbled across this recipe and got excited to try it again. The kids thought I was the coolest mom ever for letting them have this with their dinner and I couldn't help but smile at all the fun memories drinking it brought back for me. Scrabble anyone?

The ingredients:
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup nonfat dry milk powder (**see note below about using regular milk instead)
2 tsp. vanilla extract
3/4 cup cold water
10-12 ice cubes (I like it icier so I used 20)
Orange slices and mint (optional garnishments)
In a blender, combine the first five ingredients and process at high speed. Add ice cubes, a few at at a time, blending until slushy. Garnish with orange slices and mint if desired. Serve immediately. Makes 4 servings.
**if desired you could eliminate the powdered milk and water, and just add 3/4 cup milk or vanilla yogurt instead**
Enjoy!
