For it to be a true Julius, it needs a raw egg. :-)

If it's going to be a Julip, it needs fresh mint.......

To me, that just sounds like a nice Orange milkshake.

if it contains mint and a raw egg, does that make it an
orange juliup? ;-)

I don't recall an Orange Julius ever including a raw egg. Just a
spoonfull of that mysterious powder. Of course my memory is going the
way of the dodo and I didn't discover julies till about 1970, so maybe
they did at one time contain a raw egg. It appears they now use egg
white solids, which are no doubt part of the secret powder.

No, I haven't.
Thanks for the idea!

I've used teas as bases sometimes.
Celestial seasonings "bengal spice" tea makes an excellent base for hot
buttered rum. Great for a cold:

2 cups brewed Bengal Spice tea
1 tsp. butter
juice from 1/4 lemon
1 tbs. honey
2 shots myers dark rum

A good book and a heavy quilt........ ;-)

Repeat.

Sounds yummy, thanks! :-)
I like to make cranberry margaritas:

2 shots tequila
1 shot triple sec
juice from one lime

Pour over ice, fill glass with cranberry juice.

OH yeah! ;-d

Try it with:

2 shots Cuervo 1800,
1 shot Grand Marnier
juice from one lime
splash of sour mix (strong lemonade works)
and cranberry juice.

Oh YEAH!

Rum and coke is the standard around here. In many places it is the ONLY
drink available except for beer. Scotch (single or double shot) with
ice on the side is second in popularity in my town. Margaritas are
gaining popularity. There is hope though, the woman who owns the
grocery store also has a place that she rents out for private
functions. She sent a whole bunch of her staff through bartender school
so things like the Blue Hawaiian, MaiTai, Tequila Sunrise, and Tom
Collins are now available. The local pizza place is selling margaritas
and pina coladas now. You can have a standard margarita or one with
fresh fruit blended into it. I tried the canteloupe margarita the other
day. Let me tell you, you can suck those down all day and it will be
one tequila, two tequila, three tequila, FLOOR!

Ni, it's snot a milk shake. It' is extremely similar to what is known
as a licuado in Central America. A fruit or juice based blended drink
that can be made with or without diary products.

Been imbibing a few of those margaritas already? It's not even 8 AM! :-)

It sounds like your licuado is a bit different from the Mexican version. The
Mexican ones are mostly water, flavored with a LITTLE fruit. I've posted
about them here before, though I spelled the word "liquado" (since that's
the way the vendors spell it). I've seen and made them with various
berries, citrus, melons, or mangos. For dairy I've seen light cream or milk
powder added, though I suppose you *could* use heavy cream, milk, yogurt, or
buttermilk.

I wish! Bleary eyed from typing final exams for 8 different classes at
5 different reading levels. Thank God the school year is just about
over. I've got to do this stuff early in the morning before everyone
starts using electricity and the power goes out. It's the rainy season,
it's hot, and it often out for hours at a time.

Fruit, ice cubes, milk or fruit juice (for those intolerant of milk).
Throw it all in a blender, pour into a glass and spinkle cinnamon on
top. The ones you describe sound more like agua fresca - fruit, water,
sugar. Use about 3 cups of fruit to 8 cups of water plus some sugar and
lime juice.

Why are they high in sugar? Are you using a mix with sugar in it? We

Pineapple is ungodly high in sugar...
Look up the effects of excess fructose on the insulin resistant.

for the Coco Lopez brand of thick HEAVILY sweetened coconut milk. That stuff
has lots of sugar.
