I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my smoothie turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much liquid.

This smoothie was a great way to use up some leftover mandarin oranges. It was also a great way to get my kids to eat their fruit.

I'm not a big fan of citrus flavors, but I actually really enjoyed this smoothie. The sweetness of the oranges balanced out the tartness of the lemon perfectly.

This smoothie was a bit too sour for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had used less lemon.

This smoothie was a delightful blend of citrus flavors. The mandarin oranges and lemon complemented each other perfectly, creating a refreshing and tangy drink. I added a bit of honey to sweeten it up, and it was the perfect way to start my day.
