   Just curious, what does the almond milk taste like? Thought it was worth a try for .99.

  It tastes like almonds. Texture/Thickness wise it’s like skim milk.

  I prefer the coconut vanilla (lifetime dairy drinker, transitioning off of cow milk). I thought almond milk texture was too thick and its a beige color (which was a bit much for me, lol) The coconut SILK looks like cow milk and is thinner than Almond milk. Good luck on your taste test!!!

   The Vanilla almond milk (the only one I buy) tastes like a thin vanilla milkshake. Yummy!

   This isn’t an Orange Julius recipe. The title is misleading.

  Is doesn’t claim to be THE “Orange Julius”. It says a “homemade healthier non-dairy VERSION”.

  agreed. I actually just made real orange julius’s this morning and it had frozen orange juice, water, milk, a tad bit of sugar and vanilla with some ice cubes! It tasted like the real deal. This might be yummy but the title IS misleading. And I don’t think the “real” ones are that un healthy.

  Vitamix is very useful, in almost everything. You can make ice cream, soup, juice, nut butter, dough pizza and a lot more and it onlinees with a recipe book. I got mine from costco 3 years ago for $375 and I think the latest price is about $450 to $475. I do reonlinemend this product.

  I did a lot of research before buying a blender…I ending up buying a reconditioned vitamix blender from their website. Vitamix.online. It onlinees with a 5 year warranty that covers everything. Looks brand new and onlinees with everything you need , including a cookbook. Cost $350.00. Best investment ever!!!! Check out their website, or you can call and talk to someone in person. I absolutely love mine, it doesn’t even onlinepare to a ninja .

   You say no sweetener, but the milk itself has a fair amount in it! Sounds yummy though.

   Sounds tasty!!! Quick question: Do the bananas have to be frozen? I have a bunch of bananas on my counter…I was wondering if it really made a difference between room temp. bananas v. frozen ones?

   Thanks!

   Use organic whole milk — much healthier than the Silk stuff (look at ingredients!). 🙂

  I had no idea Mandy! Yes, organic milk is definitely healthier. Thanks for pointing that out!

  But I guess almond milk is a decent substitute for those who can’t tolerate lactose.

  Mandy the whole point was making a Dairy-Free version! There are plenty of recipes out there that include milk.

  To be honest, the Silk has decent ingredients onlinepared to some brands, and refrigerated is almost always better than boxed. The whole idea was a dairy free recipe but you could sub what you normally drink.

    Are the oranges blended and frozen? They looked like the shape of ice cubes. Just curious if I could freeze orange juice or blend and freeze the oranges to make them last longer. Thank you for sharing!!!

  I just peal and slice ripe bananas into a Tupperware freezer container. I’ve never had them turn black. Maybe thew Tupperware is more air tight than what you are using Donna? The slices are also great to toss into your oatmeal as its cooking. Adds just enough sweetness.

  I guess it is personal preference, I peel mine and leave them hold to freeze because they are easy to break up even in frozen state, so when I use them in my smoothies I just take them out and break in half. They don’t turn black unless you are talking about the actual skin, I let mine get really ripe before freezing because it seems to bring out the sweetness and so I don’t use any other sweetener

    I use frozen orange juice in mine, and honey for sweetener. Make them all the time 🙂
