Step 1: Peel and chop your oranges. Remember to remove any seeds!
Step 2: Add the orange pieces to a high-speed blender. I used my Vitamix to make this recipe.
Step 3: Add the rest of the ingredients to your blender (milk, honey, and optional protein powder), and blend on high speed until thick and creamy. To avoid getting off flavors from the protein powder, I love to use this unflavored Collagen Protein; it is flavorless and adds a nice creaminess to this smoothie recipe.
If you use a high-powered blender, such as a Vitamix or NutriBullet, you can add the honey directly with the other ingredients.
🔑 Sandi says: Depending on how powerful your blender is, many find it easier to whip the honey into the milk before adding it to the blender. The honey can stick to the sides of your blender and not mix into the smoothie well.
Step 4: Add some ice cubes. Put the lid on and blend for 45 seconds until fully blended.

Could you use coconut milk?
Hi Millie, do you mean canned or the refrigerated coconut milk? You can use the refrigerated coconut milk, but not the canned.
Can I substitute 4 small oranges for two big oranges?
Hi Gloria, this is totally fine 🙂
How much ice and can you reduce the honey measurement
You can use any amount of honey you like I use about a cup of ice. It really depends how thick and frozen you like it. You can use more ice if you like it very frozen.
Do you think this would work with other fruits? Looks yummy but allergic to oranges. 🙁
Hi Lyn, this would work with any fruit you can imagine with vanilla 🙂 You may have to figure out the amount a bit, depending on the size of fruit you use.
