- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric (optional)
Liquids & Others
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
- 5-6 ice cubes
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Peel the oranges thoroughly removing all skin and white pith, peel the banana, and peel the fresh ginger to remove its outer skin for a smoother blend.
- Add to Blender: Place the peeled oranges, banana, peeled ginger, honey, turmeric (if using), unsweetened coconut milk, and ice cubes into the blender.
- Blend Smoothly: Blend all ingredients on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy without any chunks left.
- Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, vibrant flavors at their best.
Notes
- You can omit the turmeric if you prefer a more traditional citrus flavor without the earthy spice.
- Adjust the honey to taste depending on the sweetness of your fruits.
- For a colder, thicker smoothie, add more ice cubes or use frozen banana slices.
- Unsweetened coconut milk keeps the smoothie dairy-free and light, but you may substitute with almond milk or oat milk if preferred.
