Brent's Orange Julius

Oppressive heat seems to be on the mind of everyone in the midwest. 100+ temps all week long with no real end in sight. I joked to our pastor that he should preach on hell during these temperatures. "If you think it's hot here, you don't want to go there". Of course, we were joking, but it will be a lot hotter, and you DON'T have to go there. A way was made for us, and His name is Jesus.

How do I segue from that to a frozen orange drink? By saying STAY COOL in these hot conditions. Seems like everyone likes a nice cold drink on a hot day.

Our son-in-law shared his recipe with us for an Orange Julius-type drink. Thought I would share it with you. We like to stick the cups in the freezer until it's almost frozen. Enjoy!
