Preparation

Step 1

* Ok, years ago they sold me the powder. Now they don’t (idiots, think how much they would sell in the stores compared to the few shops in the US). The main ingredients of their "magic" powder are listed as (1) Whole Milk Solids (Powdered Milk) (2) Egg white solids, (3) sugar, (4) corn syrup solids, and flavor enhancers (I believe a touch of vanilla powder). A few years ago I bought either powder milk or instant vanilla pudding mix. One or the other gave the drink the exact flavor. The powdered milk I believe gives it the great texture and I think the egg white solids the foam.So now you have the correct amounts of OJ, water, simple syrup, ice. Experiment on the two powders and post. I am out of time today, but wanted to post this as I just found the recipe I got 40 years ago from the Orange Julius vendor. Many other recipes call for milk. When is the last time you saw an employee at a OJ pour in milk!
