- 1 cup frozen orange juice concentrate
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 4-6 ice cubes (if needed for thickness)
- Place the frozen orange juice concentrate, yogurt, milk, vanilla extract, and sweetener (if using) into your blender.
- Blend on low speed initially, then increase to high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and thick.
- If the smoothie is too thick, add milk one tablespoon at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
- If the smoothie is not cold enough or thick enough, add the ice cubes and blend again until incorporated.
- Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with a thick coconut or soy yogurt and use maple syrup as the sweetener.
- To make this a lower sugar option, omit the added honey or maple syrup.
- If you do not have frozen concentrate, use 1 cup of fresh orange juice and add 1 cup of frozen banana chunks or extra ice.
