Ingredients

  • 1 6-ounce can frozen orange juice concentrate 
  • 1 cup milk 
  • 1 cup water 
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Put all ingredients into blender or jar with cover.
  2. Blend or shake in jar until smooth. Serve cold.
  3. Refrigerate leftover. (Standing will cause ingredients to separate. Shake to re-blend.)

Tips and variations

  • Substitute 4 ice cubes plus 1/2 cup water for the 1 cup of water to make a thick "slush".
  • Substitute pineapple, pineapple/orange juice or other flavors of 100% frozen fruit juices for the orange juice concentrate.
  • Substitute yogurt or soymilk for milk.
  • Preparing food for others can be a way to show caring. Let a younger child help you prepare this as an after-school snack for an older brother or sister.
