Original sales were only about $20 each day (that equals almost $290 in 2020 [[United States dollar]]s). Three years later, Bill Hamlin, Freed's [[real property|real estate]] [[broker]], developed a blend that made the acidic orange juice not bother his stomach as much. Freed's stand began giving out the drink. It had a more bubbly and smoother texture. The sales at the stand went up when the new drink was introduced. The sales increased to just over $100 per day.<ref>{{cite web|title=The History of the Orange Julius|publisher=Orange Julius web site|url=https://www.orangejulius.com/en-us/about-us|access-date=August 17, 2021}}</ref> During the 1950s and 1960s, Orange Julius was always sold from a variety of outlets.
