Oranges – Oranges are the most popular of all citrus fruits. They are absolutely packed with vitamin C and provide significant amounts of the flavonoids hesperidin and naringenin as well as carotenoids beta-cryptoxanthin and lycopene. Oranges promote healthy immune function, boost heart health, and have been shown to prevent anemia.

Equipment Needed To Make At Home
A standard blender is all that is required to make these delicious smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.
If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend a higher-end Vitamix blender that can process larger loads more efficiently.
For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.
How To Make The San Diego Smoothie At Home
The Jamba Juice Secret Menu San Diego smoothie is very easy to make:
- Step 1: Place lemonade, orange juice, lime sherbet, orange sherbet, and ice into a blender and secure the lid.

- Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.
