Description
This Peach Smoothie blends the juiciness of ripe peaches with creamy yogurt and liquid for a refreshing, energizing drink that’s vibrant, satisfying, and perfect at any time of the day.
Ingredients
1–1½ cups peaches (fresh or frozen), sliced
½ cup yogurt (vanilla or plain; dairy or plant-based)
½ cup liquid: milk, almond milk, coconut water, or fruit juice
Optional: handful of ice cubes (for fresh peaches)
Optional: 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup, to taste
Optional add‑ins: ½ banana, 1 tbsp chia seeds, protein powder, oats, or a handful of spinach
Instructions
- Add peaches to blender (use ice if peaches are fresh).
- Pour in yogurt and enough liquid to cover the fruit, adjusting for thickness.
- Add sweetener if needed, starting with a small amount.
- Blend on high until smooth and frothy, pausing to scrape sides as needed.
- Taste and adjust: thin with more liquid if too thick, or add sweetener if not sweet enough.
- Pour into a glass. Garnish with chia seeds or a peach slice if desired.
- Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
Notes
Add frozen banana, oats, or chia seeds for creamier texture and extra fiber.
Use coconut yogurt or coconut water for a tropical twist.
Blend fresh spinach or kale for a nutrient-rich green smoothie without overpowering peach flavor.
Serve as a smoothie bowl topped with granola, nuts, or fruit slices.
Use drained canned peaches if using canned—skip added sweetener if they’re syrupy.
