This tangy and tart-sweet blend will elevate your standard smoothie to a seasonal masterpiece.
Rich & Source of Nutritional Benefits
Blood oranges have high levels of anthocyanins, a red flavonoid pigment, that gives them their characteristic intense colour and best of all, wondrous antioxidant properties.

Crabtree Farm tips
Orange pith, otherwise known as the slightly bitter white stuff between the peel and the flesh, is high in fibre and contains nearly the same amount of vitamin-C as the flesh, so don’t peel it all off!
Blood Oranges reach peak sweetness in January and February, so that’s the best time to blend, cook, or bake them into beautifully vibrant dishes.
