Blend the ingredients for about 30-60 seconds until smooth and creamy. Adjust the time based on your blender's power.

Tips:

- For a thicker consistency, you can replace the water with more milk or use Greek yogurt.

- Add a little bit of orange zest to enhance the citrus flavor.

- For a dairy-free version, use almond milk or another plant-based milk.

- To make it even colder and more refreshing, freeze the banana beforehand.

- If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more orange juice or water to reach your desired consistency.
