This smoothie came about as an alternative use for a bag of mandarin oranges I’ve been eating forever. 2 of the 4 of us eat them so they can seem never ending. I figured they’d be a good smoothie addition!

I loved the really orange AND cream flavors. I think frozen mango or frozen peaches add frostiness since the oranges weren’t frozen and tone down the acidity. 

Creamsicle Smoothie
Ingredients: (serves 2)
3 clementines or orange, pealed
1 cup frozen mango or frozen peaches
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1 cup juice

Directions:
Add everything to the blender and blend until totally smooth.
Drop in some ice cubes and blend again to make it thicker and more frosty.

I hate peeling oranges so this was perfect! It makes me want to get my hands on some blood oranges! Maybe they’ll be next!
