So, I've been dreaming about this smoothie for so long, and I finally made it happen! This smoothie is probably one of the most refreshing smoothies I've ever had, and it reminds me of the creamsicle twist ice cream I used to get as a kid at the Jersey Shore. It's super fruity, but also has a nice sweetness from the almond butter and vanilla protein. Which reminds me, this is also a perfect meal post-workout because it's packed with protein with Nuzest Clean Lean Vanilla Protein. I love the vanilla flavor this protein adds, and it's made with real, clean ingredients. Often protein powders can make smoothies super thick and heavy, but this smoothie has such a light, refreshing taste to it. This recipe requires all clean ingredients, such as oranges, frozen banana, coconut water, pitted dates, flaxseed meal, and more. With no doubt, this is sure to refresh, boost, energize, and satisfy!
