Ingredients for Superfood Sunshine Orange Smoothie

Superfood Sunshine Orange Smoothie Ingredients

2 bananas (frozen, ideally for a creamier texture)
½ – ¾ cup original Almond Breeze Almond Milk (or any plant-based milk of your choice)
Juice of 1 medium orange, plus some zest for extra flavor
2 tablespoons goji berries (substitute with dried cranberries or raisins if unavailable)
½ teaspoon grated ginger, or a splash of ginger juice (adjust to taste)
¼ cup hemp seeds (optional, for added protein and texture)
Handful of ice (optional, for a colder smoothie)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare your ingredients: Peel and slice the bananas (if not already frozen). Juice the orange and grate the ginger if using fresh.
Add to blender: Place the frozen bananas, almond milk, orange juice, goji berries, ginger, hemp seeds (if using), and ice into a high-speed blender.
Blend until smooth: Start blending on low speed, then gradually increase to high. Blend until the mixture is creamy and well combined, about 30-45 seconds.
Taste and adjust: Check the consistency and flavor. Add more almond milk for a thinner smoothie or more ice for a thicker texture. Adjust sweetness or ginger intensity if needed.
Serve immediately: Pour into glasses, garnish with a sprinkle of orange zest or goji berries, and enjoy your Superfood Sunshine Orange Smoothie!

Boost Your Smoothie with Toppings

Take your Superfood Sunshine Orange Smoothie to the next level with fun and nutritious toppings! Try a sprinkle of chia seeds for extra fiber, a handful of granola for crunch, or a drizzle of honey for natural sweetness. For a tropical twist, add a few slices of fresh mango or kiwi on top.

Perfect Pairings for Your Smoothie

This smoothie pairs beautifully with a light breakfast or snack. Enjoy it alongside a slice of whole-grain toast with almond butter or a small bowl of Greek yogurt topped with berries. It’s also a great post-workout refresher to recharge your energy.

Customize Your Blend
