Creamy orange smoothie<\/h3>\n

If you grew up ordering Orange Julius smoothies at the mall, you will love this homemade orange smoothie, because it tastes exactly like the classic!<\/p>\n

As a kid, I was always asking to go to Dairy Queen for an Orange Julius after soccer practice. So one day, my mom came up with her own version at a fraction of the cost.<\/p>\n

Thick, sweet, and creamy, the DIY orange drink is packed with fiber, iron, and vitamin C at the same time.<\/p>\n

Plus you can make it without banana, yogurt, or added sugar. It\u2019s a great healthy recipe for picky eaters and parents, alike.<\/p>\n

Orange smoothie recipe ingredients<\/h3>\n

All you need are oranges and orange juice, milk of choice, and optional pure vanilla extract and sweetener if desired.<\/p>\n

Oranges \u2013<\/strong> Fresh oranges give this smoothie a thick texture and natural citrus taste.<\/p>\n

Feel free to go with Navel, Cara Cara, Mandarin, or any other orange variety. If you use Clementines, I recommend adding a third orange since they are smaller.<\/p>\n

For even stronger orange flavor, include zest of one fruit before discarding the peel.<\/p>\n

Orange Juice \u2013<\/strong> I like fresh squeezed orange juice. You can squeeze your own, or buy a carton like Tropicana or Minute Maid with or without pulp at the store.<\/p>\n

For a fun flavor twist, look for orange juice blends with other fruits such as mango, carrot, cranberry, watermelon, peach, pineapple, or apple.<\/p>\n

Milk \u2013<\/strong> Any milk works, including nondairy options for a vegan orange smoothie. My favorites are oat milk, almond milk, or coconut milk.<\/p>\n

You may replace the milk with more orange juice. However, I prefer to include the milk because it gives the smoothie an orange creamsicle flavor.<\/p>\n

Vanilla \u2013<\/strong> Pure vanilla extract adds depth of flavor. If using a vanilla flavored milk, omit the extract or add a drop of almond extract instead.<\/p>\n

Optional sweetener \u2013<\/strong> Depending on your personal taste preferences and whether your milk is sweetened, you may wish to add pure maple syrup, honey, sugar, or stevia.<\/p>\n
