Vitamin C Smoothie Recipes That Taste As Good As They’ll Make You Feel

It’s safe to say I’m not the only person feeling stressed about getting sick right now. You know things are looking grim when even I, a self-proclaimed picky, terrible eater, start Googling healthy recipes. While I’m not one to live off of salads and veggies alone, I *am* a pretty big fan of tasty smoothies and juices, so I’ve done my fair share of trial and error when it comes to testing immunity-boosting vitamin C smoothie recipes. Far better for you (and far more delicious) than drinking a glass of OJ, these recipes are jam-packed with healthy ingredients to help you thrive—especially if you’re feeling under the weather.

What kind of foods are great sources of vitamin C? Yes, yes, we know oranges top the list. That said, others include kale, mangos, papayas, cantaloupes, strawberries, bell peppers, and even more tasty treats. Shout out to foods that are delicious and good for you! Rare, but oh-so-appreciated. While you could definitely whip up a fruit salad using all the above, blending them together and creating a nutritious smoothie sounds much more tempting, don’t you think? Smoothies are basically the milkshakes of the health world, and for this reason, I stan. My milkshake might bring all the boys to the yard, but my smoothie brings all the vitamin C to my immune system. Yes, you can quote me on that.

Still, I know that not every smoothie is for everyone, so I’m not going to pressure you to utilize any foods you don’t like. Read on for ten different vitamin C-packed recipes, and pick the one that appeals to your tastebuds the most. Happy blending!
