Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Peaches fresh (peeled, pitted, chopped) or frozen
  • 1/2 cup Greek Yogurt plain or vanilla; or regular yogurt, or dairy-free alternative
  • 1/2 cup Milk dairy, almond, soy, oat, or coconut beverage, adjust for consistency
  • 1-2 tablespoons Natural Sweetener optional; honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar, to taste
  • 1/2 cup Ice Cubes optional, if using fresh peaches or for extra chill
  • 1 pinch Ground Cinnamon optional

Method
 

  1. Gather your gear: Get your blender ready and ensure all ingredients are within reach. A high-speed blender works best, especially with frozen fruit.
  2. Prep the peaches: If using fresh peaches, wash, slice in half, remove the pit, and chop into smaller chunks. Frozen peaches are ready to go.
  3. Add liquid first: Pour your chosen milk into the blender. Starting with liquid at the bottom helps the blades move freely.
  4. Layer the solids: Add chopped or frozen peaches, followed by Greek yogurt and any sweetener (honey or maple syrup).
  5. Consider ice: If using fresh peaches or for a thicker consistency, add a handful of ice cubes. Frozen peaches often eliminate the need for extra ice.
  6. Blend until smooth: Secure the lid. Start blending on low, then gradually increase to high. Blend until completely smooth and creamy, with no visible chunks. Scrape down sides as needed.
  7. Check consistency: If too thick, add a small splash more milk and blend. If too thin, add more frozen peach chunks or ice cubes and re-blend.
  8. Pour and enjoy: Once desired consistency is reached, pour into a tall glass and serve immediately.

Notes

Achieving the ultimate Peach Smoothie is simple with a few key tips. Use a high-power blender for a silky-smooth consistency. For the coldest and thickest smoothie, opt for frozen peaches or freeze fresh ones first. Layer ingredients starting with liquids, then softer items, and finally frozen items on top for efficient blending. Taste your smoothie before adding sweetener as peach sweetness varies. Smoothies are best enjoyed immediately; store in an airtight container for up to 24 hours, but texture may change. You can also explore variations like Tropical (add orange juice, pineapple), Protein-Packed (add protein powder, nut butter, chia seeds), Green (add spinach or kale), or Spiced (add nutmeg, cardamom).
