Ingredients

• 1 cup fresh orange juice
• 1 large frozen banana
• 0.5 cup coconut milk
• 0.5 cup ice cubes
• 0.5 teaspoon fresh ginger
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
• 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Peel a ripe banana, cut it into chunks, and freeze it for at least 2 hours before making the smoothie.

Step 2

Juice enough fresh oranges to yield 1 cup of orange juice, or use store-bought fresh orange juice if you prefer.

Step 3

In a blender, combine 1 cup of fresh orange juice, the frozen banana chunks, 0.5 cup of coconut milk, and 0.5 cup of ice cubes.

Step 4

Grate 0.5 teaspoon of fresh ginger and add it to the blender. Fresh ginger adds a refreshing kick, but you can skip it if you prefer a milder flavor.

Step 5

Add 1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup for sweetness, but this is optional if you prefer the natural sweetness from the fruits.

Step 6

Pour in 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract to enhance the overall flavor profile.

Step 7

Blend all ingredients on high until smooth and creamy, ensuring the frozen banana is fully incorporated.

Step 8

Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness or flavorings if necessary.

Step 9

Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
