Orange Creamsicle Smoothie Recipe | Weight Watchers Smoothie Recipes (2024)

It's been at least twenty years (probably more though) since I've enjoyed the taste of a Creamsicle® - but I loved them as a kid.

So, with a bunch of a clementines sitting on the counter and begging to be eaten, I decided to try and create my very own orange creamsicle smoothie recipe.

I figured it couldn't be too difficult and it wasn't, but I am not sure I got the flavor I wanted, but it came really close.

I started off peeling 4 clementines (a cross between a sweet orange and a mandarin orange) and putting them into my Vitamix (affiliate link).

Then I added some unsweetened almond milk and plain Greek yogurt. I believe that if I used vanilla yogurt my smoothie may have been truer in taste to the Creamsicle's I remember - but I prefer plain yogurt and didn't want to make a special trip to the store.

I found an old ½ vanilla bean in my pantry, so I cut that open and scraped out as many beans as I could - but it was rather dry. So I also added in some vanilla extract.

Next I added some ice and blended away until it was all smooth. After my first taste, I realized it wasn't quite sweet enough (or vanilla-y enough), so I added in some honey and a little more vanilla extract and blended it again.

This time, the taste of my newly created orange clementine creamsicle smoothie was much closer to the real thing.

I may pick up some small containers of low-fat vanilla yogurt and/or nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt and keep trying, but for now I've satisfied my Creamsicle® craving.
