Method

1. Load the blender

   Pour the orange juice and milk into the blender, then add the yogurt, whey and vanilla.

   Use juice and milk straight from the fridge. Cold liquids give the frostiest shake.

2. Blend with ice

   Add the ice cubes and blend for 45 seconds, until thick, smooth and pale orange.

   Blend it cold and drink it soon. Juice and milk can separate if the shake sits warm.

3. Pour and drink

   Pour the shake into the glass and drink it within 15 minutes, while it's still frosty.

   If it starts to separate, give it a quick stir and it comes right back.
