peach smoothie

Ingredients:

  • 2 ripe peaches, peeled, pitted, and chopped
  • 1 banana, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes
  • Optional: a handful of spinach or kale for added nutrition

Instructions:

  1. Wash, peel, pit, and chop the peaches. Slice the banana.
  2. In a blender, combine the chopped peaches, banana, Greek yogurt, milk, honey, and vanilla extract. If you’re adding greens, this is the time to include them.
  3. Add the ice cubes to the blender. The ice will help make the smoothie cold and creamy.
  4. Blend all the ingredients until smooth. You can start at a low speed and gradually increase it to achieve the desired consistency.
  5. Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey if needed. Blend again briefly to mix in the additional honey.
  6. Once the smoothie is smooth and well blended, pour it into glasses.
  7. If you like, you can garnish the peach smoothie with a slice of peach or a sprinkle of cinnamon on top.
  8. Serve the peach smoothie immediately and enjoy!
