Peach Smoothie (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Smoothie Base
01 -
2 cups peaches (fresh or frozen), chopped
02 -
1/2 cup coconut yogurt
03 -
1/2 cup almond milk (or any milk you prefer)
04 -
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Optional Add-ins
05 -
1 tablespoon agave or maple syrup (for extra sweetness)
06 -
Handful of ice cubes (if using fresh peaches)
07 -
1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds
08 -
Peach slice for garnish
# Instructions:
01 -
If using fresh peaches, peel them and chop into chunks. If you're in a hurry, frozen peaches work great too and will make your smoothie frosty without needing extra ice.
02 -
Add the peach chunks, coconut yogurt, almond milk, vanilla extract, and any optional ingredients (sweetener, chia seeds, ice) to your blender.
03 -
Cover and blend on high speed until everything is smooth and creamy. You might need to stop once or twice to scrape down the sides with a spatula to catch any stubborn bits.
04 -
Give your smoothie a quick taste. Need more sweetness? Add a little more syrup. Want it thinner? Splash in some extra milk. Blend again briefly if you make any adjustments.
05 -
Pour your peachy creation into a tall glass. For a nice touch, garnish with a small peach slice on the rim or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top.
# Notes:
01 -
This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately, but you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours (though separation may occur).
02 -
For a fun frozen treat, pour leftover smoothie into ice cube trays and freeze, then blend the frozen cubes for a slushy consistency.
03 -
When peaches aren't in season, good quality frozen peaches can actually give better flavor than out-of-season fresh ones.
