Raspberry Orange Dreamsicle Smoothie

Citrus in a smoothie! Really? I had to give this one a shot . After all, I have a serious orange loving little fruit bat in my house. Not to mention so many of my friends on Facebook and Instagram have been telling me how the sweet and tangy addition of the oranges really make for an amazing smoothie. Also, that smoothies are not meant for just bananas and berries. This Raspberry Orange Dreamsicle Smoothie is inspired by many, especially my daughter.

This combo reminds me of a cross between an orange soda, ice cream float and a Flinstones orange push-up pop. If those two ideas alone don’t take you back to the 80’s I’m not sure what other food item will, except for a TV Dinner.
