Orange Creamsicle Smoothie

Citrus season is here and I’m loving it! Fresh, juicy and bright tasting citrus fruits are what I naturally crave this time of year, so the inspiration hit to create a delicious and healthy smoothie. My Orange Creamsicle Smoothie is a creamy and dreamy delight! Fresh mandarin oranges, banana, and vanilla yogurt make this simple and satisfying smoothie a great breakfast, snack or pre-workout boost.
Just a note in case you don’t like the taste of bananas: you really can’t taste the banana. My husband doesn’t like bananas and he tried this smoothie and loved it and could not taste banana at all. Makes approximately a 16oz serving.
Let’s begin!
Ingredients:

Ingredients:
- 2 mandarin oranges
- 1 medium banana, sliced
- 1/2 cup Silk Unsweet Vanilla Almondmilk Yogurt
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Optional Garnish:
- Extra dollop of yogurt
- Orange zest
Tip:
- Use frozen orange sections and banana slices for a thicker, creamier smoothie!
I think this smoothie is sweet enough on it’s own, but you may sweeten by adding 1/2 tsp honey (or use pure maple syrup for vegan) or add 1-2 large pitted dates before blending.
Instructions:

Add ingredients, in order, to a smoothie cup and blend using smoothie setting.
Alternatively, add all ingredients to a blender in reverse order and pulse a few times, then blend on high for at least one minute, or until smooth.

Pour into serving glass and garnish with a dollop of yogurt and orange zest, if desired.

Enjoy this fresh and bright tasting smoothie for breakfast or a delicious pre-workout boost.

Enjoy!
