Orange creamsicle protein shake smoothie

The Orange Creamsicle Protein Shake Smoothie is a refreshing and nutritious beverage that combines the delightful flavors of orange and vanilla. It's perfect for a post-workout treat or a quick breakfast on the go. Packed with protein and vitamins, this smoothie will keep you energized and satisfied.

Ingredients:

1 scoop whey protein powder
30g
1/2 cup milk (1% fat)
120g
1/2 cup water
120g
3 fl oz orange juice
90g
1/2 banana
60g
1 tsp honey
7g
3 ice cubes
70g

Instructions:

1. Gather Your Ingredients: Ensure you have all the ingredients on hand. This includes whey protein powder, 1% milk, water, orange juice, half a banana, honey, and ice cubes.
2. Prepare the Liquid Base: In a blender, combine 1/2 cup of 1% milk and 1/2 cup of water. This will form the liquid base for your smoothie.
3. Add the Protein Powder: Add 1 scoop (30g) of whey protein powder to the blender. Make sure to choose a flavor that complements the orange creamsicle taste, such as vanilla.
4. Pour in the Orange Juice: Add the 3 fl oz (90g) of orange juice to the mixture. This will give your smoothie its refreshing citrus flavor.
5. Incorporate the Banana: Peel and slice 1/2 of a banana and add it to the blender. The banana will add creaminess and natural sweetness to your smoothie.
6. Sweeten with Honey: Measure 1 teaspoon (7g) of honey and add it to the blender. This will enhance the overall sweetness without overpowering the other flavors.
7. Add the Ice Cubes: Drop in the 3 ice cubes (approximately 70g) to give your smoothie a chilled, frosty texture.
8. Blend Until Smooth: Secure the lid on your blender and blend on high for about 30-60 seconds, or until all the ingredients are well combined and the smoothie has a creamy, smooth texture.
9. Check Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more water or orange juice and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
10. Serve Immediately: Pour the Orange Creamsicle Protein Shake Smoothie into a tall glass. You can garnish with a slice of orange or a straw, if desired.
11. Enjoy: Drink your smoothie immediately to enjoy its fresh, creamy, and delicious flavors.

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.

This Orange Creamsicle Protein Shake Smoothie is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy the classic creamsicle flavor while still getting a good dose of protein and vitamins. Follow the tips to customize it to your liking, and enjoy a nutrient-rich treat that can power you through your day.
