Description
My version of the Orange Julius is the real deal: real orange, real vanilla and a healthy pile of spinach to help you get your daily dose of phytonutrients. No funky powder.
Ingredients
Scale
- A big handful of green or red grapes
- 2 oranges, peeled and quartered
- 1 apple, quartered and cored (I used a Gala; a frozen banana would be good, too)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp. orange extract
- zest of an orange
- 3 big handfuls of baby spinach
Instructions
- Place the ingredients in a good blender or Vitamix in the order shown. If using a Vitamix, start on Variable 1 and turn to 10 (of if you are a Spinal Tap fan, crank it to 11 to get that extra little oomph) and then flip the switch up to High. Let it process for 30-45 seconds. Serve pronto.
