Ingredients
Instructions

Tips & Substitutions
For a sweeter drink, consider using fresh orange juice instead of store-bought to enhance flavor. If you're out of powdered sugar, regular granulated sugar works fine; just blend longer to dissolve. For a refreshing twist, add a splash of lemon or lime juice to balance sweetness. This drink pairs beautifully with Muffin Cones for a delightful breakfast.
