Step-by-Step Instructions for Orange Smoothie
  1. Gather your fresh oranges, orange juice, and milk. Optionally, freeze orange juice for a thicker smoothie.
  2. Peel the oranges, removing all skins and seeds. Aim for about two sizable oranges.
  3. Combine the peeled oranges, orange juice, and milk in a blender along with any optional ingredients. Blend until smooth.
  4. Check the consistency; add more orange juice or milk if too thick and blend again.
  5. Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately, optionally garnished with a slice of orange.
  6. Enjoy the smoothie right away, or store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days.
