Why Make This Recipe?

This smoothie is more than just delicious; it’s a powerhouse of immune-supporting ingredients. Here’s why it’s worth blending:

  • Rich in Vitamin C: Oranges are a well-known source of vitamin C, which is vital for a healthy immune system. Studies show that vitamin C can reduce the severity of colds and improve overall immunity.

  • Anti-inflammatory Benefits: Turmeric and ginger aren’t just for adding flavor. Turmeric contains curcumin, a compound with powerful anti-inflammatory properties, while ginger is also known to soothe digestion and support immunity.

  • Gut-Friendly Fiber: Carrots and bananas add a dose of fiber to keep your digestion on track, which is essential for a strong immune response.

Why This Recipe Is Easy

This smoothie doesn’t require any fancy techniques or hard-to-find ingredients. Here’s why it’s a breeze:

  • Minimal Prep: The only chopping required is for the carrots (and even that’s optional if you have a powerful blender).

  • One-Step Process: Just toss everything into your blender, hit the button, and you’re done.

  • Customizable Sweetness and Spice: Adjust the honey, ginger, or turmeric to your taste with no extra hassle.

Why Use JOI in This Recipe?

We’re (obviously) big fans of JOI Organic Oat Milk Powder and Oat Creamers (biased, duh!)...but we think it's for good reason. Adding it to this smoothie makes it:

  • Clean and Simple: NO SEED OILS in our oat milk products. Unlike typical creamers full of additives and gums, JOI’s clean-label formula keeps things natural and wholesome. Our creamers contain healthy fats and prebiotic fiber!

  • Nutrient-Dense: Made with high-quality ingredients, JOI adds a boost of plant-based creaminess without any unnecessary fillers.

  • Convenient and Sustainable: JOI is a concentrate, so you’re in control. Mix just what you need, reducing waste and packaging. Plus, it has a lower carbon footprint compared to traditional milk products since you add the water yourself.

Substitutions and Customizations

Not a fan of one of the ingredients? No problem! Here are some simple swaps:

  • Orange Juice: Use pineapple juice for a tropical twist or apple juice for a milder flavor.

  • Carrots: Swap with mango chunks for a sweeter, fruitier version.

  • Honey: Replace with maple syrup to keep it vegan.

  • Spices: Adjust the turmeric, ginger, or cinnamon to suit your flavor preferences.

  • Oh, JOI!: Experiment with any JOI concentrate, or add a couple - almond, cashew, hemp...
