Orange Carrot Smoothie

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
Wash, peel, and chop the carrot into smaller pieces for easier blending.
Peel the orange and remove as much of the white pith as possible for a smoother texture.
2. Blend the Smoothie:
Add the chopped carrot, orange segments, orange juice, plant-based milk, and optional ingredients (lemon juice and ginger) into a blender.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more orange juice or milk.
3. Adjust and Serve:
Taste and adjust sweetness by adding a drizzle of maple syrup or agave, if desired.
Pour into a glass and serve immediately. Add ice cubes if you prefer a chilled drink.
Optional Add-Ins:
1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fiber.
1/2 banana for added creaminess.
A handful of spinach for a nutrient boost without altering the taste.
