This Creamy Strawberry Clementine Smoothie Recipe Provides a Healthy Blast of Vitamin C by Elisa Schmitz
Whether you're feeling under the weather or are just looking to keep your immune system strong, getting some vitamin C into your system is always a good idea. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that supports the immune system and strengthens skin, joints and bones, among many other health benefits of vitamin C.
This creamy strawberry clementine smoothie recipe provides a berry big blast of vitamin C. Strawberries and clementines, a mandarin fruit similar to a tangerine, offer high amounts of vitamin C. In fact, clementines have slightly higher levels of vitamin C than tangerines, and just two of them provide more than your daily need for the vitamin.
That's why this easy fruit smoothie recipe is a no-brainer for whenever you need a quick vitamin C fix. You need only six ingredients to make this refreshing smoothie: strawberries, clementines, bananas, yogurt, almond milk and orange juice. Blend all the ingredients until smooth then enjoy as a healthy breakfast, snack, fruity dessert or energizing beverage any time of day!
