Ingredients:

3/4 cup almond milk
180g

30g
1 tsp vanilla extract
4.20g
3/4 cup orange juice
190g
1 tsp orange zest
2g
1 cup water
240g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients listed above. Make sure you have the correct quantities measured out for ease of blending.
2. Blender Ready: Place a blender on a stable surface and ensure it is clean and dry before you start.
3. Combine Ingredients:
- Pour 3/4 cup almond milk into the blender.
- Add 1 scoop whey protein powder.
- Measure and add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Follow by pouring in 3/4 cup orange juice.
- Add 1 teaspoon orange zest for a burst of citrus flavor.
- Finish by adding 1 cup of water.
4. Blend: Secure the lid on the blender to prevent spills. Blend the mixture on high speed for about 30-60 seconds, or until the smoothie is smooth and well combined.
5. Check Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add a bit more water or almond milk and blend again until it reaches your desired consistency.
6. Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses. You can optionally garnish with a bit of extra orange zest or a slice of orange on the rim for an added touch.
7. Enjoy: Serve immediately while it's cold and fresh. Sip and enjoy your refreshing and nutritious Orange Dream Protein Smoothie!

Tips:

- For a thicker consistency, use frozen orange juice or add a handful of ice cubes before blending.

- If you prefer a sweeter taste, add a natural sweetener like honey or a few drops of stevia.

- To enhance the citrus flavor, you can add a few more teaspoons of orange zest or even a few pieces of fresh orange.

- Ensure your protein powder blends well by adding the almond milk and protein powder first before adding the other ingredients.

- For a dairy-free option, you can substitute whey protein with a plant-based protein powder.

With just a few simple ingredients and easy steps, you can create an Orange Dream Protein Smoothie that is both delicious and nourishing. Whether you're looking to replenish your energy after a workout or simply enjoy a tasty treat, this smoothie offers a perfect blend of flavor and nutrition.
