Strix’s Raw “Orange Julius”

Recipe by: Strix

2 large juicy oranges, peeled and seeded ( use the white part surrounding the orange — it’s good! Adds creaminess)
1 to 1 1/4 C ice cubes
1 to 1 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Powder, preferred (or extract)
Stevia to taste OR Agave Nectar to taste
Orange zest to serve, optional

Blend all on “high” in a blender till smooth. Serve immediately.

Additionals for more/different flavor: 1/2 tsp Orange Flower water; 1/4 tsp coconut
extract

Idea: Some nuts for creaminess sounds yummy. I would suggest cashews, brazil, or almonds.

When I used to make this non-raw vegan, I sometimes added nuts and it was good; so, I’m sure it would be good here too!

   Just reread your recipe & not sure what you meant about non-raw-vegan with nuts (soaked almond-nut milk is raw vegan, yes?)…anyway, yes, do use a soaked nut-nut milk, I do think that creaminess is part of it…

   I just stumbled onto another way of making raw orange julius, this morning: 1 small orange, 1 large tangerine, a handful of baby carrots, enough almond milk to reach the top of the foodstuffs in the blender. Added some sparkling mineral water when it was done mixing, for bubbliness. Couldn’t believe I’d hit that distinctive baby aspirin flavor without sweeteners, and *with* carrots! (Have been unsuccessfully trying for this flavor for awhile, don’t know why, I don’t even like it that much! If you *do*, though, try this, it’s amazingly close.)
