Orange Smoothie Recipe

• A refreshing, cool drink perfect for hot summer days.
• Made with fresh, simple ingredients that are easy to find.
• Kid-friendly— the whole family will enjoy it.
• Quick and easy to prepare.

Ingredients

• 4 medium oranges — peeled before blending.
• 1/3 cup almond milk — for a smooth, creamy base. Substitute oat or coconut milk if you prefer.
• 1 banana — adds creaminess and sweetness; use frozen for a thicker texture.
• 1 1/2 cups frozen mango pieces — complements the orange and banana flavors.
• 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt — boosts creaminess and protein without overpowering the fruit.
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract — a splash brightens the overall flavor.

How To Make An Orange Smoothie

1. Place all ingredients into a high-speed blender.
2. Pour in the almond milk with the fruit and yogurt.
3. Blend on high until smooth and free of large fruit pieces. Add more almond milk if the mixture is too thick.
4. Serve cold and enjoy.

Tips & Variations

• Serve immediately. The smoothie is best enjoyed cold and fresh.
• Freeze leftovers. Pour extra into an airtight, freezer-safe container to enjoy later as a frozen treat or thaw slightly and re-blend.
• Add strawberries. Fresh strawberries add a bright, complementary flavor.
• Use frozen banana. Swap the fresh banana for a frozen one to thicken the smoothie.
• Boozy option. Turn it into a frozen cocktail with 1 ounce of your preferred liquor.
• Make it sweeter. Add a tablespoon of honey if you prefer a sweeter drink.
• Try different milks. Oat, coconut, or banana almond milk are good alternatives.
• Add collagen. A scoop of unflavored collagen boosts protein and may support hair, nails, skin, and bones.

Recipe FAQ

Storing

• Short-term: Drink immediately for best texture. If needed, store in the fridge up to 30 minutes before drinking—longer storage affects consistency.
• Long-term: Freeze leftovers in an airtight container to enjoy later as a frozen snack or to re-blend when ready.
