Sweet Peach Smoothie
Servings: 1
Peach season is one of my favorites! Whether you've got more fresh peaches than you know what to do with, a bag of frozen slices in the freezer or just a hankering for something peachy, this ginger peach smoothie is sure to hit the spot.
Equipment
- high-speed blender
Ingredients
- ½ orange peeled
- 1 banana
- ½ cup water
- 1 ½ cups peaches chopped
- 1 tsp ginger root finely minced
- 1 serving homemade protein powder optional
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to blender. Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
- Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Notes
- Freeze peaches before blending (or buy frozen) for a colder smoothie.
- Other stone fruit can be substituted for the peaches such as plums, nectarines, apricots, pluots, etc.
- Omit ginger and add a good pinch of nutmeg and cinnamon for a smoothie that tastes reminiscent of peach pie.
- Swap water with unsweetened, dairy-free milk.
- If your blender is having a hard time blending these ingredients, add just a bit more water.
