Super Smoothies :: Orange Spice Zinger
Good morning! Are you ready to wake up to a sweet, delicious, energizing smoothie? I think so. I know I am 😉 I had lots of oranges left over from making marmalade (as favors for Little A’s Paddington Bear party tomorrow), so I’ve been including them in our smoothies. Just a few splendid ingredients blended together makes for a heavenly treat!
Major bonus: it’s immune boosting capabilities. Drink a few of these babies this week to get yourself in tip top flu-fighting shape!
