When I was a kid I loved going to Orange Julius at the local mall. It was also fun to make Orange Julius drinks at home and we made them all the time for a special treat. I still have the cookbook that Orange Julius recipe was in! Recently I ran across this recipe for Orange Julius bars and had to try them. I knew my kids would love them, and I was right. They’re great and really easy to make.

Orange Julius Bars Recipe
Ingredients:
- 6 oz orange juice concentrate (thawed)*
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla
*Note: Six ounces is half of a can of frozen orange juice concentrate. If you have enough popsicle molds you can easily double this recipe and use the entire can, which is what I did. A double recipe made 8 large popsicles and several smaller popsicles.
Amazon sells a great popsicle mold that you can use over and over again. I love it, it is my favorite popsicle mold.

If you don’t have popsicle molds, you can also just use Dixie cups and popsicle sticks.
Stir the melted orange juice concentrate together in a bowl with the milk, water, sugar, and vanilla. Pour into popsicle molds and freeze. Enjoy!

These came out really delicious. The only thing I will change next time is less vanilla. I thought 2 tsp for a double recipe was a little overwhelming. I could taste the alcohol. Otherwise, they are one of my favorites.
Could you just use a normal cup of orange juice? If so, how much?
