orange julius

If you want something super creamy and delicious, that tastes just like an orange julius (which I enjoyed as a kid...my brother made a great homemade, dairy-based one)... Then try this fantastic raw version that's packed with nutrients and dairy free!

"RAw OrAnge JuLiUs"
1 1/2 frozen bananas (organic preferred) broken into pieces
4-5 ice-cubes
1/2 C. fresh coconut water (or just filtered water is fine too)
1/2 a peeled and seeded orange (organic is best, especially since you'll be using the peel for the zest!)
1 1/2 ts. grated orange peel/zest
1 ts. pure vanilla extract
2 tb. raw tahini
2 rounded tb. raw honey

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy...enjoy!
