Ingredients
Fruit
- 2 oranges, peeled and seeded
Liquids
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1/4 cup milk (any type or additional orange juice)
Extras
- 1/8 tsp pure vanilla extract (optional)
- Sweetener to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Peel the oranges carefully and remove any seeds to ensure a smooth texture in your smoothie.
- Optional Freeze: For a thicker smoothie, freeze the orange juice ahead of time in an ice cube tray.
- Blend Smoothie: Add the peeled oranges, orange juice (frozen or fresh), milk, vanilla extract if using, and sweetener to a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy immediately for the best freshness and flavor.
Notes
- Freezing the orange juice before blending creates a thicker, colder smoothie without diluting the flavor.
- Use any milk of your preference, including plant-based options like almond, soy, or oat milk.
- Adjust the sweetness with natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or stevia according to your taste.
- This smoothie is best consumed right away to enjoy its fresh flavors and optimal texture.
