Peel the oranges and the pink grapefruit, ensuring you remove as much of the white pith as possible to prevent bitterness.
Cut the banana into chunks to make blending easier.
In a blender, combine the orange segments, grapefruit segments, banana chunks, and Greek yogurt.
Add the ice cubes and pour in the water or orange juice to help the blending process.
Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Taste the smoothie and, if needed, add honey for extra sweetness. Blend again briefly to incorporate.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately for the freshest flavor.
