Strawberry Orange Smoothie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries
- 1 orange, peeled and segmented
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup yogurt (plain or vanilla) or almond milk for a dairy-free option
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for added sweetness)
- 1/2 cup ice cubes (if using fresh strawberries)
Instructions:
- Blend the ingredients: In a blender, combine the strawberries, orange segments, orange juice, yogurt (or milk), and honey (if using). Blend on high until smooth and creamy.
- Add ice: If you’re using fresh strawberries and want a colder, thicker smoothie, add the ice cubes and blend again until the smoothie reaches your desired consistency.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately. Garnish with a slice of orange or a few strawberries on top for an extra touch of freshness.
