Orange-Yogurt Cream Coolers

Celebration & Coolers

Suggested ages 9–12 Independent prep, with an adult nearby

4 small drinks · Active 10 min · Total 10 min

Yogurt and orange juice make a tangy, creamy drink that can be whisked by hand. Add the juice gradually so the yogurt loosens smoothly. It is a small drink to enjoy right after mixing, not something to leave standing on a warm table.

Start with the grown-up check

Four small cups of creamy pale-orange yogurt drink, smooth and lightly frothy, with no fruit garnish or straws.

Before you begin · grown-up check

The adult checks pasteurized dairy and juice and stays nearby; no blender is needed.

  • A grown-up checks ingredient labels, the workspace and the young cook’s readiness before starting. No heat is needed; the grown-up stays nearby.
  • Adult checks the yogurt and juice labels and sets out stable cups.

Ages are a starting guide. A grown-up checks your readiness and stays nearby. Follow the actor label on every step.

Let’s make it

  1. Young cookWash hands with soap and water, clear the work area and read all the steps before measuring.
  2. Young cookSpoon yogurt into the pitcher and whisk until smooth.
  3. Young cookAdd a little orange juice and whisk, then continue adding it in small pours.
  4. Young cookWhisk in the cold water to make a pourable drink.
  5. Young cookDivide between four cups and serve right away; stir again if it separates.

The skill you’re learning

A thick ingredient blends more evenly when a thin one is added in stages. A little separation after standing is a cue to stir again.

Try one change

Use plain yogurt plus 1 tbsp maple syrup instead of vanilla yogurt.

Serving & storing

A grown-up puts leftovers in a covered shallow container at 40°F or colder within 2 hours, or 1 hour above 90°F. Use within 1 day.
