Vitamin-C Packed Citrus Blast Smoothie
This citrus blast smoothie is packed with vitamin C and antioxidants, making it the perfect way to start your day or refuel after a workout. The combination of orange, grapefruit, lemon, and lime juices provides a tart and refreshing flavor, while the banana and honey (if using) add sweetness and creaminess. The water and ice help to thin out the smoothie and make it more drinkable.
The inspiration for this smoothie came to me one morning when I was feeling under the weather. I had a cold and was feeling run down, so I decided to make myself a smoothie to help boost my immune system. I started with some orange juice, which is a good source of vitamin C, and then added some grapefruit juice, lemon juice, and lime juice for extra tartness and flavor. I also added a banana for sweetness and creaminess, and some water and ice to thin it out. The result was a delicious and refreshing smoothie that helped me to feel better in no time.
