Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • Zest from 1 medium orange (about 12 teaspoons)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 12 teaspoons erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (adjust to taste)
  • A handful of ice cubes
  • Optional: 1–2 drops of orange extract for extra flavor
  • Garnish: Chopped almonds and a twist of orange peel

Instructions

  • Zest the orange using a zester or fine grater, avoiding the bitter white pith.
  • In a blender, combine almond milk, orange zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, sweetener, and ice cubes. Blend until smooth and frothy.
  • Taste and adjust sweetness or citrus flavor as desired.
  • Pour into a glass, garnish with chopped almonds and orange peel, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, add a splash of heavy cream.
  • Skip the garnish if you prefer a simpler presentation.
  • This drink is best enjoyed fresh but can be prepared (without ice) and stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
