Fruit juices are often used in making smoothies, so naturally, we had to share a smoothie recipe using orange juice.
Fruit juices can add a lot of flavor and deliciousness to your smoothies. But, be careful, we do recommend using homemade freshly juiced fruit juice, because often, commercial fruit juices tend to have a lot of added sugar, or are made from a concentrate.
Is Orange Juice Good For Smoothies?
Orange juice serves one main purpose that all liquids do, to smoothies, and that is to help blend your ingredients and create a smooth drinkable consistency.
Adding orange juice to your smoothies will not only make your smoothies tastier but also add more nutrients.
Are Smoothies Better With Orange Juice Or Milk?
It really depends on what you ate trying to achieve. If you are dairy-free for example, orange juice might be better than milk.
However, orange juice has a stronger flavor than milk, so if you don’t mind the orange flavor, then orange juice might be a good idea.
What Fruit Goes Well With Orange Juice?
Orange juice can work with many fruits. But here’s our list:
- Berries
- Peaches
- Bananas
- Grapefruit
- Cherries
- Cranberries
- Pineapple
And the list goes on.
Are Smoothies With Orange Juice Healthy?
They can be! But ideally, when you make smoothies with orange juice, make sure you use freshly squeezed orange juice, or use quality orange juice that’s from the whole fruit, not just from a concentrate.
Also, ensure that if you are using a store-bought, make sure you avoid orange juices with added sugar.
Can I Mix Yogurt And Orange Juice?
Of course, you can mix yogurt and orange juice. Ideally, use freshly squeezed orange juice, though!~
Yogurt can be a great addition to your smoothies for added protein. Furthermore, it will also help you achieve creaminess.
Freshly squeezed orange juice will provide you with vitamins and fiber.
