Sugar-Free Orange Julius Recipe

Now that our schedules have relaxed a little bit for the summer, we’re becoming a little bit lazier in our bedtime and morning routines by watching movies to well after dark, going to bed a whole lot later, and sleeping in until the birds have been outside singing for hours already.

And I’m not complaining one single bit.

When we’re finally all up and going, Little Buddy is raring to go and ready to make up for any seconds he’s missed of the day. I like to start him off with something to drink as I’m preparing his breakfast. I’ve noticed he’s becoming a whole lot pickier lately about his foods so I take every opportunity to make sure his drinks and snacks are packed full of wholesome goodness.

One of my favorite things to whip up for him is this sugar-free orange julius. It’s a simple twist on the classic drink of my childhood, but without any added sugars or sweeteners.

It couldn’t be any simpler to make.

Here’s my sugar-free orange julius recipe.
