Take your smoothie to the next level with this peach probiotic smoothie recipe. Mix with your fav kombucha to make your gut happy and healthy.
My Peach Probiotic Smoothie is made with three very simple ingredients and served icy cold in a fun coconut sugar-rimmed glass. Blend up a pitcher of this mocktail to serve at a party or sip it on the patio on a hot summer day! If you love peaches, then you can’t go wrong either way.

What’s in this Probiotic Smoothie?
Fasten your seatbelts! You’re not gonna believe this…there are only 3 ingredients in this smoothie! It doesn’t get any easier than that, right? Read on to see why I love each of the ingredients in this simplistic summer peach probiotic smoothie so very much.
Spinach adds fiber and phytonutrients
Spinach is so versatile when it comes to neutral flavors in smoothies. That’s why we’ve included it here. Anytime you can add a little extra boost of vitamins and minerals, fiber, and other nutrients into your day is plus.
Spinach is chock full of iron, vitamins A, C, and K, and loads of dietary fiber to keep your tummy happy. I love to blend mid-morning, since I’m opting for healthy coffee first thing. Or sometimes I’ll rawk this probiotic smoothie as an afternoon snack. Honestly, any time of day is great for this chilled summertime treat.
Probiotics help the gut
This Probiotic Smoothie is a little different than my typical green smoothie recipes— thanks to the kombucha. I use kombucha here for a very important reason. Kombucha is rich in enzymes and probiotics due to the natural fermentation process. It works much in the same way you may already know yogurt does for your digestion.
Keeping our digestive tract in tip-top shape is key to overall good health. Kombucha is made from fermented black, green, or white tea that is sweetened with sugar which feeds the culture, known as a SCOBY (symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast). I like to make my own kombucha (it’s really easy), but I also like to buy new flavors at the store too.
My favorite store-bought brands of kombucha are:
- Health-Ade: Passion Fruit-Tangerine
- GTS Living Food: Gingerade
- Suja: Peach Kombucha
- GTS Living Foods: Watermelon Wonder
Peaches add a creamy sweetness
Last up on the ingredient list for this Probiotic Smoothie? Peaches of course! When it comes to fruits for blending, I. love. peaches! Like a lot. They are summer’s best fruit, in my not-so-humble opinion. Nothing beats a good peach. Plus, they are lower on the GI scale, which also helps your gut. (High sugar, refined foods are hard on your gut.)
More Flavor Suggestions
A recipe like this can go so many different ways and be amazing. As a result, here are a few other recipes I’ve played with and enjoyed:
- Ginger kombucha + pineapple
- Watermelon kombucha + strawberries
- Passion Fruit kombucha + peaches
Probiotic Smoothie FAQs
The answer to that is a big kale yeah! Probiotics contain all kinds of health benefits because of their pro-gut bacteria. Balancing the good and bad bacteria levels in your gut helps to strengthen your immune system, improves digestion and can even lead to weight loss.
For sure! Probiotics can be found in all kinds of yummy fermented foods and drinks like yogurt, kimchi, kefir and kombucha. If you try one and aren’t a fan, switch it up to find just the right fermented friend for you. Your tummy will thank you.
Craving too much sugar, constipation, overuse of antibiotics and a slowing metabolism are all signs that a probiotic would be a good idea for you. Adding kombucha to a smoothie, eating unsweetened yogurt or even learning to love sauerkraut are all ways to introduce healthy bacteria back into your gut and bring balance back to your body.

Peach Probiotic Smoothie
Ingredients
- 1 cup spinach
- 8 oz kombucha
- 1 ½ cups peach frozen
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- homemade protein powder optional
Instructions
- Blend spinach and kombucha together until no more leafy chunks.
- Add in the frozen peaches and blend again until creamy.
- Squeeze lime juice and coconut sugar onto small shallow tray/bowl.
- Dip rim of cup into lime juice and then into sugar to coat the edge of the glass.
- Fill glass with probiotic smoothie and enjoy!
Equipment
Notes
- Kombucha is a naturally fermented beverage, and it does contain a very small percentage of alcohol, about that of a non-alcoholic beer, or even less. If that is something you avoid for whatever reason, totally swap it out for coconut water and a splash of sparkling water so your Probiotic Smoothie still has some fizz.
- Feel free to swap out the peaches for another fruit such as frozen pineapple, mango, or strawberries. Switch things up by using another flavor of kombucha. Get creative!
- You can also blend the lime right into the smoothie and use water to line the glass.
- Probiotics can be added to the smoothie as well in powder form.
- Nutrition is calculated without the kombucha— since it depends on the brand you use.
Jury still out on this one.
I liked the Peach Probiotic and not as much as some of my other favorites. The kombucha gives it an attention getting taste, but still good. I have drank it down quickly so I must have liked it. I followed the recipe exactly.
Don’t feel right leaving a review on this one because I hardly followed this recipe. Didn’t have kombucha so used water. My peaches were not very viable, so had to add in apricots to make up the difference and that wasn’t enough fruit so I added 1/2 a banana. So this was good, but not this recipe. LOL
Wow I never thought of mixing kombucha & smoothies. It was really good!
Bit bland. Dont think my peaches where ripe enough but added some grapefruit juice and that made it superyummy! Didnt have kombucha (couldn’t find it) so used tea and some apple cider vinegar
Interesting smoothie – very tropical!
Do yourself a favor and make this smoothie! I’ve never thought of adding kombucha to a smoothie but it made it taste delicious. I used a ginger lemon flavor. This smoothie is a bit tart and not too sweet, but it sure doesn’t taste like spinach. Loved it!
I usually don’t like kombucha, but this was surprisingly good!!! Thank you so much for all the new ideas to make my smoothies tasty and rich in flavor!!!
I made this with a locally produced Peach Mango Kombucha. I added lime juice and zest, but not the whole lime as I have found lime can be overpowering. Fresh peaches and YUM! I normally do not like peach smoothies, but this has me rethinking that thought.
Oops! Made a mistake, added whole 1/2 lime in smoothie, wet glass with water. I changed the recipe a little bit, altered the taste. I used lemon ginger tea with a dash of cayenne pepper, added too much cayenne pepper, should have used coconut water, instead of kombucha. I added 1/2 cup Greek yogurt and used a baby kale, spinach, Swiss chard mix
I Love this smoothie!! It was my first time putting Kombucha in my smoothie. (I used raspberry lemonade flavor one) To be honest, I wasn’t sure about Kombucha in a green smoothie, but surprisingly, I enjoyed it very much!
Never thought to use kombucha in smoothie before. It was great. Took my smoothie to go so didn’t get to try the coconut sugar on the rim. Next time. Swapped Mango for the peaches.
Have always been a Kombucha fan. Have never put it in a smoothie. Kind of an Ah Ha moment for me. Worked out great!
This was just alright. It was really tart, but that could’ve been because I used a 1/2 a lime, not just the juice; I guess that was a typo in the page I had, lol. Also, I used ginger kombucha, which was too much ginger, so I’ll try it with a different flavor next time.
Never had kombucha before but this got me to try it
Yay!!! Kombucha is soooo good for you! SO happy we convinced you to give it a try!
Thanks so much for sharing this mocktail! Love seeing the creative ways to use kombucha!
Hi Billy,
You got it! Thanks for blendin’ with us!
