Some wonderful tips and variations to make this Immunity Boosting Orange Smoothie:
-
If you want some mega milky touch, then feel free to add some chilled almond milk or coconut milk to this smoothie.
-
My smoothie is super thick, but you can surely adjust the consistency of this smoothie. Coconut water can also be added to this smoothie.
-
This smoothie is richer on the orange flavors and tastes best when you get thick texture from the fresh oranges. So try to use heavy, juicy, and pulpy oranges.
-
I have used unsweetened freshly squeezed orange juice that can easily be replaced with the same amount of store-bought orange juice.
-
You can also add a splash of honey if you want to sweeten it up a bit.
-
If you want to achieve the thick texture of smoothies, then using frozen mangoes are recommended.
-
Feel free to add 1 frozen banana to this smoothie if you want natural sweetness and texture.
-
You can also add some frozen peaches or frozen pineapples to this orange smoothie.
-
If you want nutty tenderness, then you can also add some flaxseeds or chia seeds to this smoothie.
-
If you don’t have fresh ginger, then add ½ teaspoon of ground ginger.
-
You can substitute turmeric powder with ½ tablespoon of freshly chopped/grated turmeric root.
-
Some cinnamon powder or cardamom powder can also be added here for the added flavourings.
