orange creamsicle smoothie

3 clementines or tangerines, or 2 oranges, frozen overnight

1/2 cup plain yogurt (I used coconut since I am tying to boost my iron levels- calcium inhibits iron absorption)

2.5 scoops collagen peptides

1/2 cup milk of choice (I used coconut milk-but this is truly delicious with any type of milk. If you want a more traditional creamsicle flavour stick to yogurt and dairy milk)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp honey if desired

1. Peel citrus and slice, freeze overnight or until frozen completely solid.

2. Place in blender and add all other ingredients and blend until smooth.

3. Pour and top with whipped cream if desired
