Cold and Flu Busting Coconut and Orange Smoothie (With 4 Options)

This cold and flu busting coconut and orange smoothie will melt away your cold in no time. It will also give you sustained natural energy to keep you going all day,

Cold and Flu Busting Coconut and Orange Smoothie (With 4 Options)

Jump To Recipe

It’s that time of year when all the cold and flu bugs are circulating.  This cold and flu busting coconut and orange smoothie will stop your cold or flu in it’s tracks in no time.

Since I started drinking smoothies every day 3 years ago, I’ve only had 2 flu type bugs. Both of those bugs surfaced when I was suffering from extreme baby related sleep deprivation.

I used to get one cold after another all the way through each winter and spent a lot of my childhood in bed with the flu so I’m still amazed that a change in my diet can have such a positive impact on my health.

Cold and Flu Busting Coconut and Orange Smoothie (With 4 Options)

If you drink smoothies like this one every day, you’ll do wonders for your immune system.

If you already have a cold or the flu, this smoothie contains ingredients that will reduce the length of your cold, plus give you an easy to digest energy source that you will find easy to stomach.

Coconut and  Orange Smoothie Flu Busting Ingredients

This smoothie contains the following ingredients that have shown to be beneficial for colds and flu:

Oranges

If you have been exposed to a lot of stress lately, it has been shown that an increase of vitamin C can reduce your likelihood of coming down with a cold or flu by up to half.

Clementines

Just one clementine contains half the amount of Vitamin C required daily.  One serving of this recipe contains 3 clementines.

Coconut

Bruce Fife says in his convincing book  that he always prescribes coconut oil for reducing the length of a cold or flu and he has seen some amazing results.  Bruce Fife recommends that you take 4 tablespoons of coconut oil a day while you’ve got a cold.  I now buy my coconut oil in bulk here or here as it’s half the price of buying it locally.

Ginger

Ginger has been used for thousands of years for the treatment of colds and flu. You can either add it to your smoothies or steep it in boiling water throughout the day.

Lemons

Lemons can reduce the severity of your cold and flu symptoms as well as being great for treating congestion and sore throats.  Whenever my husband starts to get a sore throat, I make him a hot honey and lemon tea with ginger and he always feels immediate relief.

Chia Seeds

Chia seeds are a great addition to your drinks when you are feeling run down as they help to hydrate you which is what you need when you’re feeling run down.  They also help you feel energised all day and keep your blood sugars stable.  I can’t yet find chia seeds locally so I have to buy them online.

Echinacea

Echinacea can halve your risk of catching a cold and reduce the severity of the symptoms once you’ve got your cold.  You can find a great source of echinacea here or here that can easily be added to your smoothies.

Honey/ Sweetener

If you are able to eat honey it would be worth adding some honey to your smoothie to sweeten it up and also provide some amazing healing benefits.  I would recommend you use a raw manuka honey as they can be especially good for many aspects of your health and healing.  If you don’t use honey, you can use your favourite healthy sweetener instead to give you an energy boost.  You can also buy your honey or maple syrup here.

What is your favourite natural remedy for colds and flu?

Prep Time 2 minutes mins

Course: Smoothie
Cuisine: Drink
Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

FRUIT SMOOTHIE INGREDIENTS:
  • 1 Cup Orange Juice
  • 1 and a half Cups Coconut Milk or one can
  • 6 Clementines 3 cups
  • 2 teaspoons of Ginger raw root ginger, or dried
  • Juice of 2 Lemons
OPTIONAL TO BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM AND QUICKLY RELIEVE YOUR COLD:
  • 2 Tablespoons Chia Seeds
  • 4 Tablespoons of Raw Manuka Honey
  • 20 drops of Echinacea
  • 4 Tablespoons of melted Coconut Oil
  • 1 Cup Spinach tightly packed or 2 cups loosely packed (or any other mild greens) OR if you run out of fresh greens, add 2 scoops of Amazing Green Powder for an extra healthy green boost.
  • 1 Filler Click here to choose a filler

Method
 

Blend the ingredients in the following order:
  1. Blend the dry ingredients and liquid first for a short time
  2. Blend the greens next for a short time (if using)
  3. Blend the fruit and the rest of the ingredients until smooth (or as smooth as your blender will allow.  High speed blenders may need 2 minutes for a Green Thickie, less powerful blenders may need a lot more, sometimes 5-10 minutes)
More tips:
  1. Blending this way allows the dry ingredients to be blended for longest, it means the greens will fit in your blender and your fruit gets less blending so it doesn’t become too hot.
  2. Add more water if required to thin it out.
  3. Substitute any of the ingredients for whatever you already have.
  4. If your smoothie is too warm, you can cool it down in the fridge or freeze some of your ingredients before blending.
  5. You can also replace half of the liquids with ice.  Add the ice at the end.
  6. It is better to add frozen ingredients at the end to cool the smoothie down.

Notes

How much should I drink to replace a meal?
  • Only use a meal replacement if you’ve added the oats/quinoa.
  • This Green Thickie serves 2 so you should DRINK HALF OF THIS RECIPE.  But if you have higher calorie requirements you may need to drink more.
Suitable for Special Diets:
  • Gluten free (Use GF Oats or Quinoa)
  • Raw (Use raw oats/quinoa)
  • Vegetarian, vegan, dairy free, egg free, refined sugar free, wheat free, soya free (don’t use soya milk or tofu)
  • Salt free (don’t add salt)
  • Nut free (replace nuts with sunflower or pumpkin seeds. This doesn’t include coconuts)

Cold and Flu Busting Coconut and Orange Smoothie (With 4 Options)

Are you struggling to lose weight and keep it off?

Are you feeling run down and are struggling with ever increasing health problems?

Green Thickies new 7 Day Detox will help you drop a dress size, improve your skin, your energy will soar and you are going to be so in control and proud of yourself.

You won't go hungry on this diet ... And better yet - it actually requires minimal time in the kitchen.

Get results like this...

Hi Katherine,

I just wanted to tell you I completed the 7 day detox and I feel so great.

I have lost 6lbs, do not feel like I need more my morning coffee, the flushing of my facial skin from rosacea has dramatically reduced and I am so excited to wake up each morning and make a green thickie for breakfast!!

I am a stay at-home, homeschooling momma of 3 littles and at times so busy I would forget to feed myself!

I would go most of the day without eating and then snack on random things.

I gained 60 pounds the last 6 years during pregnancy.

I have lost 30lbs but recently plateaued and have felt so frustrated.

I’ve tried everything from paleo and keto to the point where I didn’t know what to eat or how much and felt like even eating fruit was bad for me which thankfully it’s not!

What a game changer for me. Thank you for sharing a simple but effective program.

I’m so excited to continue another week with this plan! Thankful Stephanie

    Hi Katherine, I’m Anne from Life on the Funny Farm (http://annesfunnyfarm.blogspot.com), and I’m visiting from Natural Living Mondays.

    I haven’t really gotten into the “healthfood smoothie” thing yet, but if I’m going to start, this would be the one. My kids (and I) love oranges AND coconut, so this would be perfect.

    Anyway, thanks for posting this. If you’ve never visited yet, I hope you can pop by my blog sometime to say hi…

    This looks really good! I have never tried coconut milk or oil. Maybe I’ll make some room in the budget for it. I was just telling my husband, I have never been so sick in my life as I’ve been lately and I’m desperate to do something about it. Pinning this so I remember!

      If you like the taste of coconut oil I’m sure you’ll love coconut milk and oil. Coconut milk is cheaper as coconut oil is quite expensive. I use so much now that I buy it in bulk which really helps. I think the cheapest way to eat coconut is to buy dried coconut. From that you can make coconut milk by blending it with water and straining it, or coconut butter (which is quite like coconut oil but nicer) by food processing it until creamy. Brown coconuts are also cheap where I live.

      Thank you. It was one of my favourite smoothies. It is much easier to eat coconut oil in a smoothie than straight out of the jar and so good for you. That’s great you are still adding quinoa. Quinoa is much more expensive where I live otherwise I’d add it all the time too.

Is it the one like soy milk but coconut our the coconut milk from the can? Thanks a bunch…I have the flu right now and running a fever of 101 and need help.

      No, don’t use coconut oil instead of coconut milk, use it as well as. For this recipe I used coconut milk from a can as it’s more creamy (but I’m working on some homemade recipes). Sorry to hear you’ve got the flu. I really hope this smoothie helps you and you recover soon!

    I do have one question about this smoothie.. The orange/coconut smoothie… The mixture is separating alot, even before I put the oil in… What am I doing wrong? This ones not for saving for later on in the day is it?

      That’s a shame your smoothie is separating. I didn’t have that problem and did store mine in the fridge for about 24 hours too. Are you following the ingredients list exactly or making some substitutions? Do you include the oats? I’ve never had any of my thickies separate before but might possibly be a climate thing, coconut can react differently depending on the temperature, not sure if it’s that?

    This looks great…thank you for sharing! But, I’m finding this site very frustrating (even though I’ve shared it around numerous times). I can’t print off the recipe (am i missing where there is a, “Print” option?). There are too many ads embedded in the content to get the bulk of the information, not considerate to viewers. I can’t figure out how to quickly print recipes which is very frustrating.
