When I was a kid I *loved* a nice orange creamsicle dessert pop.  You know the ones, right?  Super yummy.

So what if…  I recreated this as a delicious, healthy juice?   

YES!!  I did.

It IS summertime, after all and my Orange Creamsicle Juice Recipe is perfect for a hot weather treat. 

It’s deliciously dairy-free!

Ingredient Benefits 

ORANGES  Oranges are full of vitamin C and antioxidants.  They are an excellent source of fiber, beta-carotenes, vitamin
A, several B vitamins, and minerals like calcium, copper, iron,
manganese, phosphorus, potassium and zinc.  The combination makes
oranges effective when you want to try to maintain your overall health
and well-being. Animal studies indicate that the hesperidin in orange (a citrus
flavonone) has strong anti-inflammatory properties and can lower blood
pressure and blood cholesterol.

FULL FAT COCONUT MILK Full fat coconut milk not only tastes heavenly, it’s amazing for you.  Here are the things I love about it.

  • May lower blood pressure and cholesterol.
  • Can help build muscle.
  • Helps prevents fatigue.
  • May help you lose weight.
  • Improves digesiton.
  • Relieves constipation.
  • Helps to manage blood sugar.

When paired with fruits or sugars it slows the digestion into your bloodstream so that your insulin doesn’t spike.

Orange Creamsicle Juice Recipe
