A healthy holiday smoothie, who would have thought that this could be so delicious and great for keto diet. The principle flavor is clementine.

Clementines, also known as Christmas oranges, are a popular holiday treat due to their sweet flavor and attractive appearance. Clementines are in season during late fall and early winter, so they can easily be harvested before the holidays begin. Additionally, clementines have a short shelf-life of around two weeks which makes them ideal for gifting and sharing during the Christmas season. Clementines are also popular as a healthy snack option since they are low in calories and contain vitamin C, fiber, and other essential nutrients.
