Carrot Banana Orange Smoothie /Carrot Smoothie



I was totally clueless for today's smoothie recipe and decided to make smoothie bowl.But I was running out of some of the ingredients and finally ended up in making this smoothie.

I often make carrot juice for my kids as they like it and its a nice way to include carrots in their diet.While making this juice I got the idea of making smoothie along with some frozen banana.The smoothie came out so delicious and creamy,kids liked it a lot.Also the use of fresh orange juice makes this smoothie so tasty and refreshing.

  Ingredients

Ingredient
Quantity

Water

  • Add in orange juice and whip it for 10 seconds.Transfer it to a serving glass.

  • Serve it right away.




  • Serve it immediately,otherwise the color will change as it has banana.
  • I didn't strain the carrot juice as it blends very well.If you want a clear juice then pass it through a strainer.
  • A small piece of ginger and few mint leaves can also be added for extra flavor.
