Ingredients

1 large ripe orange, peeled and segmented

1 frozen banana, sliced

1 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla or plain)

1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker smoothie)

Instructions

Prep the Ingredients: Begin by peeling and segmenting the orange, and slicing the banana if it isn’t pre-sliced. For the best flavor and texture, use a ripe banana that's frozen.

Blend it Up: In a blender, combine the orange segments, frozen banana, Greek yogurt, milk, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and cinnamon if you're using it.

Adjust for Consistency: Blend on high for about 30 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a splash more milk, or if it's too thin, add a few ice cubes and blend again until smooth.

Taste and Adjust: Give the smoothie a taste and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup if desired. Blend again briefly to mix any additional ingredients.

Serve: Pour the smoothie into chilled glasses. You can garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top or an orange wheel for a fun touch.

Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy this delightful, refreshing Orange Creamsicle Smoothie!
