Orange : This is the star ingredient of the recipe, as it gives a tangy and fruity punch to the shake. I have used fresh, sweet and juicy navel oranges for making milkshakes. You can use any variety of orange based on your choice.

Cold milk : As cold as your milk is, the shake will be creamy and frothy. It also helps your drink to be chilled and refreshing for a long time. You can also go for non dairy milk options like soy milk, almond milk or coconut milk.

Icing sugar : Icing sugar is nothing but powdered granulated sugar. It dissolves quickly and also adds sweetness to the drink. You can substitute with honey, maple syrup or condensed milk.

Whipping cream powder : This powder makes the drink rich, creamy and adds a foamy texture. If you don't have whipping powder, substitute with a scoop of ice cream, freshly whipped cream or heavy cream.

For More Delicious Milkshake

Prep work : Chill the boiled milk and oranges in the refrigerator for a few hours.

Peeling : Take the oranges, cut the top and bottom part of it. Peel the skin. Cut the orange segments using its natural mark.

Want vegan milkshake : To make a vegan milkshake, swap the full fat dairy milk with plant based milk like soy milk, coconut milk, oat milk, almond milk or cashew milk.
