Sweet Peach Smoothie
Servings: 1
This sweet peach smoothie blends peaches, citrusy orange, creamy banana and a zing of fresh ginger into a light, refreshing drink that tastes like summer. Just four ingredients and 5 minutes for a morning or afternoon pick-me-up.
Ingredients
- 1 cup peaches fresh or frozen
- 1 orange peeled and segmented
- ½ banana peeled
- 1 teaspoon ginger root
Instructions
- Place the orange in a blender, followed by the peaches, banana and ginger.
- Blend on high until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed and adding a splash of water if it's too thick. Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Notes
- Texture Tip: Freeze fresh peaches ahead, or buy frozen, for a colder, thicker smoothie. If it's too thick, add up to 1/4 cup water, coconut water or unsweetened non-dairy milk.
- Mix-Ins: Add a pinch each of nutmeg and cinnamon for a peach pie flavor.
- Protein Boost: Blend in 1/2 cup plain plant-based yogurt or a serving of protein powder for a creamier, more filling smoothie.
- Storing: Best fresh, but it keeps in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake before drinking.
