Ingredients
Scale
- 1 small banana, frozen
- 1 orange, peeled and seeded (about 1 medium orange)
- 1/2 cup vanilla almond milk (unsweetened preferred)
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt (nonfat or low-fat)
- 1 tablespoon natural honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- Handful of ice (about 4–6 ice cubes)
Instructions
- Prepare produce: peel and segment the orange, and ensure the banana is frozen (slice before freezing for easier blending).
- Add ingredients to blender in order: frozen banana, orange pieces, almond milk, Greek yogurt.
- Add honey, vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and the ice.
- Secure the lid and blend on high until smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds depending on your blender.

- Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately for best texture.
