Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place all ingredients into a blender in the order listed: whole milk, vanilla extract, sweetened condensed milk, frozen orange juice concentrate, and ice. Add raw egg or egg white powder only if using.
- Blend: Blend on medium-high speed for a few seconds until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
- Serve: Pour the drink into glasses.
- Garnish: Optionally, top with whipped cream and an orange slice for presentation and extra flavor. Serve with a straw and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Frozen orange juice concentrate: Minute Maid is discontinuing theirs, but Old Orchard and other brands are great alternatives.
- Sweeteners: For a creamy and rich sweetness, sweetened condensed milk is preferred over instant vanilla Jello powder or granulated sugar, which can create a grainy texture. Don’t skip the sweetener to balance the citrus tartness.
- Fruit variations: Add frozen banana slices, strawberries, or pineapple for a different flavor profile and thicker texture.
- Dairy-free option: Substitute whole milk with coconut milk.
- Yogurt variation: Replace milk with vanilla Greek yogurt (2 cups) and omit the ice for a tangier, creamier drink.
- Raw egg option: The original recipe sometimes includes a raw egg or egg white powder, though this is optional and not recommended due to salmonella risk.
