Add the unsweetened almond milk, heavy cream, and vanilla extract into a blender.
Include the orange extract and sweetener of choice (erythritol or stevia) for a sweet, citrusy flavor.
Peel and pit the avocado, then add half of it to the blender. This adds a creamy texture and healthy fats.
Add unsweetened coconut flakes for a subtle nutty flavor.
Add one cup of ice cubes to the blender to make the smoothie refreshing and chilled.
Blend all the ingredients on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if necessary, blending again if additional sweetener is added.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately, garnished with extra coconut flakes if desired.
