What ingredients do I need to make this Protein Orange Julius Shake?

  • Simply Light orange juice pulp free– the Simply Light Orange Pulp Free has half the sugar and calories of our regular orange juice! With Simply Light Orange Pulp Free contains only 50 calories per serving!  You could also use 1 CRUSH orange sugar free orange drink powder packet.* You will need add 8 oz. unsweetened almond or skim milk if you use the powder mix. 
  • Clean Simple Eats Simply Vanilla Protein Powder —My affiliate link: Pounddropper gets you 10% off if you want to try it) or any other vanilla protein powder!  
  • Ice 

What protein powder do you recommend using for this Protein Orange Julius Shake?

I love using Clean Simple Eats Simply Vanilla for this recipe.

There’s nothing vanilla about the Clean Simple Eats Simply Vanilla Protein Powder – except the deliciously rich and creamy vanilla flavor. A classic staple that (literally) goes with EVERYTHING, Simply Vanilla is simply THE BEST.

Clean Simple Eats protein powder is healthy, effective and, of course, has a deliciously rich flavor and creamy texture! This is truly naturally sweetened and made from grass-fed whey. The whey is cold processed from start to finish, keeping all of the nutrients intact so your body can actually utilize all 20g of protein! It also has an enzyme blend to help your digestive system break this fuel down into usable amino acids.

What other protein could I use?

You could also use a pre-made 11 oz. vanilla protein shake combined with the crush powder drink mix. 

What blender do you use? 

You can use a full size blender or I like to use a personalized blender like THIS one when I’m making an individual smoothies and protein drink.

How do I make this Protein Orange Julius Shake?

Blend the protein powder with the orange juice with a handful of ice in a blender or food processor. 

Enjoy!

Made this several times already. I used pure protein shake instead and it was delish! Thanks for the recipe!
