Orange Cream Milkshake

You may want to try it the Dominican way. There it’s called Morir Sonando (English translation ‘to die dreaming’.) Use evaporated milk, sugar to taste, freshly squeezed orange juice but you can use regular orange juice, juice of 1 lime, vanilla and a little cinnamon. Blend all the ingredients together with ice. This can either be done in a blender or just putting it in a covered container and shaking it vigorously by hand.

It could have been a litter sweeter.

It taste a like a creamier version of the orange dream machine at a popular smoothie place. I added in some vanilla extract. My daughter loves this recipe!

my kids loved this!! i want to try it with lemonade too (copycat chick-fil-a frosted lemonade which is sooooo delicious)

its so refreshing on a warm summer day.

Tasted exactly like a orange creamsicle!!! Super easy to make, took me 5 minutes. I used 5 scoops of ice cream and 6 tbsp of orange juice instead of the concentrate

followed it basically to the letter and i didn’t find anything was wrong with it. It tasted great to me!

YUM! I didn’t use the whole half cup of milk, just a tad and I added a half teaspoon of vanilla extract. Just like a Creamsicle. NOTE: I used Turkey Hill ice cream.

This was ok. Definitely has potential with the proper ingredients. I don’t think that the orange juice concentrate did much for it. Maybe an orange soda pop or something. Don’t think I will be making this one again though.

Loved it – added a dash of orange extract. Kids had this for a snack and they all enjoyed it.

yummy a little tart but maybe i added too much orange juice

Very good! Mix half vanilla ice cream and half orange sherbert with milk and it tastes a lot like the Varisty Orange at the Varsity in Atl.

not great, wouldn’t make it again

really good and refreshing but needed more orange flavor in my opinion..

I love it! It is a fresh and relaxing drink for after my nieces play. Thank you for sharing!

Pretty good but not what I’d call spectacular. I used frozen vanilla yogurt, which I like mixed just with orange juice cause I like nearly anything orange. I didn’t like it quite as well with the milk, so maybe I just don’t like this flavor in a “creamy” sort of form. And, yes “scoop” is very arbitrary, which is why I dislike being given a measurement that way. I don’t know what proportion I used. I think my scoop is smallish so I usually just make sure to make a BIG scoop.

This was very easy to prepare. I suggest using quality ice cream since it is the main ingredient. It did take a lot of blending to achieve a smooth texture. I had to stop the blender a few times to remove air pockets. However the result was delicious and satisfying. A+!

If you want to avoid the extra sugar from the orange juice concentrate, use orange extract. It’s a pretty standard milkshake recipe, so I don’t think you can legitimately say that the texture is bad. Before you recommend playing with the amount of milk, do keep in mind that “scoops” of ice cream is a very arbitrary measurement. Try starting with a 2:1 ratio of ice cream to milk.

Tastes like an Orange Julius with ice cream. Needs something sweet to take the tart edge off. Maybe banana?

This milkshake is… ok? I would barely call it a milkshake at all since it came out in blobs instead of being smooth, even after I blended it over and over. It turned out way too sweet, since there is only 1/2 a cup milk and the rest is sweet. I tested it out in the middle of the blending process and realised it was too rich with sweetness, so I added another 1/2 cup of milk. After that, it was alright. It made more like 3 servings, instead of 2. Overall- I was not impressed. It wasn’t the best milkshake I’ve had but it was average. I also added whipped cream to the top and it was actually pretty tasty with chocolate chip cookies (yum). I don’t think I will make this one again, but I will keep looking for the perfect milkshake recipe.

My family, and neighborhood kids love this milkshake and the cool orange creamy taste.
