| My neighbor gave us 5 oranges and it was more than enough for this recipe. It has been too long for me to really remember what the original taste like but this was delicious anyway. My kids loved it. It was their first one ever. Thanks. |

| I tried it exactly to this recipe and it was pretty close to the original, but the next time I made it, I used powdered coffee creamer instead of egg whites and I used 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup sugar + 1 whole orange sectioned! It was identical to the original!! |

| Omg! This is so dang good! Just like I remember :) I used fresh squeezed oranges and one vanilla pod (scrapped the inside) and then I added half a cup of cream and half a cup of water. It really didn't need much added sugar, I put in about 6 packets of Splenda! Awesome!! |

| Ahhh... Just what I was looking for. Excellent recipe. I would suggest trying it as is before making any modifications to it. I doubled the vanilla as some suggested and it was a bit too strong for my liking. Overall an excellent recipe. |

| The missing top secret ingredient to every Julius drink is... flat orange pop. Watch them make it when you are at the mall. It took me a but to figure it out. try it and you'll be shocked, promise. |

| Because I had an orange julius for almost every day for five weeks in the summer (go pacific northwest ballet intensive) i can tell a slight difference. To make it real, use half milk, half water. Naked juice or fresh squeezed works best. Also double the vanilla and add a tad less sugar. It is the real thing. |

| I remember in the early seventies you had the option of having yours made with a whole egg added to it. I went with this option myself, processing it and the sugar into a zabaglione creme before adding orange juice and water and then the ice. Perfect substitution, and tastes like I remember, if not better. |

| This recipe is exactly it! The taste is eactly the same but... The first time I made it, I used Tropicana Orange juice because its my favorite but it didn't quite taste right and I knew it was the orange juice. The next day I bought Minute Maid (Simply Orange - the blue one with calcium)and WOW now it tastes perfect! |

| To make it taste like an creamsicle use 3 scoops of vannila ice cream. It tastes wonderful. Also I tried it with pina colada juice and it taste good so any fruit juice would probably work. |

| Tastes almost like the real thing. Going to try just the OJ with no water next time I make this drink. I used dry egg whites instead of raw and it worked better, more froth. |

| Coffee Creamer is a great substitue for Egg whites. If you like strong orange flavor then add less water and more OJ. I also used honey instead sugar for added flavor. Just make sure you blend before you add ice. |

| Pretty good, watch out with the vanilla or it will overpower the recipe, less eggwhites if you want it less frothy. Maybe lower the water content so that the orange flavour stands out. Ice content, adjust according to your taste, if you like it corse don't blend for so long. |
