Ingredients

Scale

Fruits

  • 4 small oranges (about 1 1/2 pounds peeled and quartered)
  • 1 cup frozen cranberries

Liquids

  • 1 cup orange juice (or 8 oz ginger kombucha)
  • 1/2 cup yogurt, almond milk, or cashew milk

Flavoring

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Peel and quarter 4 small oranges, measuring approximately 1 1/2 pounds. Gather 1 cup of frozen cranberries, 1 cup of orange juice or ginger kombucha, 1/2 cup of your choice of yogurt, almond milk, or cashew milk, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  2. Blend Ingredients: Place all the ingredients into a blender in the order listed. Start blending at a low speed, then gradually increase to high. Continue blending until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no chunks of fruit left.
  3. Serve or Store: Pour the smoothie directly into glasses and enjoy immediately for the best freshness and flavor. Alternatively, refrigerate the smoothie in a sealed container and consume within one day to maintain quality.

Notes

  • You can substitute orange juice with ginger kombucha for a probiotic twist.
  • Choose yogurt or plant-based milks based on dietary preferences or restrictions.
  • Using frozen cranberries helps create a chilled smoothie without adding ice, preserving flavor intensity.
  • Consume quickly or within one day to prevent separation and maintain freshness.
