1 cup orange juice (preferably fresh)

1 cup milk (whole or 2% recommended)

1/4 cup granulated sugar
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1 cup ice cubes
-
Optional: 1 egg white (for authentic frothy texture, use pasteurized)
Instructions
-
Add orange juice, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and ice to a blender.
-
If using, add egg white for extra frothiness.
-
Blend on high until smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds.

Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
-
For a healthier option, use honey or maple syrup instead of sugar.
-
Add a frozen banana for a thicker, smoothie-like version.
-
Skip the egg white if concerned about raw eggs—it's still creamy without it.
