This is so yummy and it’s hard to believe it has whole oranges and a whole squash in it for how creamy and tasty it is. It really tastes like an Orange Julius, from what I can remember.
I think I would add more ice, though for a thicker Juilicious, since the Whole Juice cycle lasts so long and seems to melt the ice a little bit. Very good, though!
Diane,
Some buttons use different power settings based on the types of ingredients that are in your blended product. This recipe calls for a whole squash and whole oranges that, in my opinion, are better blended longer, like they are using the "Whole Juice" button, which results in "micronization" (I believe the term is called. If you look at the Manual, they explain that some buttons have different levels of power used throughout the individual cycles. Some buttons pushed need to blend at a low level first then speed up, while others start out high and so forth. Some blend longer, some blend shorter. It’s really ingenious, but I do find that sometimes we have to use the manual buttons to get smoother blends. Not all the time, though!
When yellow squash is not available can butternut or buttercup be used?
The video (on youtube) shows the recipe without the frozen orange juice concentrate while here the recipe states it. can the drink in fact be made w/out the juice concentrate? and could a regular (pulp free) orange juice work??
2 TBSP honey divided by 5 serving = just a little over a teaspoon per serving doesn’t really seem that excessive.
