Make orange julius pops immediately if you love delicious frozen treats. If you have ever had an Orange Julius, you know that they are a citrus delight.
Here’s a recipe to make orange Julius pops that will hopefully replicate the flavor of the original in frozen form.
With just a few ingredients you can create drool-worthy creamsicle pops that don’t take long at all.
The frozen treats are yummy for parties, or any hot summer day.
Or, if you are like me, you love frosty desserts no matter what the temperature is. Just bundle up.
They are too tasty to miss out on. Use different frozen juice concentrates to experiment with other flavors.
Make too much of your morning smoothie? Freeze it into a pop. Once you start making them, the possibilities become endless.
But, for now, let’s focus on making the sunnily scrumptious orange julius pops.
How to Make Orange Julius Pops at Home
To make homemade orange Julius popsicles you only need a few things, many of which may be in your freezer or pantry.
Like, orange juice concentrate. Am I the only one who always seems to have that in the freezer, and yet, never makes orange juice?
Along with the OJ concentrate, you will need vanilla extract, milk, sugar, and whipped cream.
For supplies, you’ll want 3 oz paper cups, craft sticks, and a blender.
Follow the directions listed in the recipe card below to whip up your orange ice pops in no time.
The only time-consuming part is letting them freeze. Oh, the sweet anticipation of awaiting our favorite frozen goodies!
This homemade popsicle recipe is not as healthy as the melon pops, but I plan to play with it a bit to see if it can be tweaked.
I want to try freshly juiced orange juice, maybe some vanilla protein powder, and then we shall see from there. I’ll keep you posted.
Even if I don’t change it up, it’s still better than chasing down the ice cream truck!
