Expert Tips

  • For the best flavor, be sure to use ripe peaches, strawberries, and bananas. Underripe fruit will not have enough flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh fruit on hand, you can use frozen fruit instead. This will give your smoothie a thicker, creamier consistency and help to keep it cold.
  • Make sure to blend the ingredients until they are completely smooth and there are no chunks left. This will ensure a creamy and smooth texture.

Variations

  • Berry: Add a handful of blueberries or blackberries to the smoothie for a berry blast of flavor.
  • Green: Add a scoop of protein powder or a handful of kale to make a green monster smoothie.
  • Creamy: Add a scoop of vanilla yogurt or a splash of almond milk to make a creamy and delicious smoothie.

Storing & Freezing

Storing: Transfer the smoothie to an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Freezing: Pour the smoothie into a freezer safe container or silicone ice cube tray and freeze for 2-3 hours, or until solid. Once frozen, transfer the smoothie cubes to a freezer-safe bag or container and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to drink, add the frozen smoothie cubes to a blender and blend until smooth. You may need to add a little water or almond milk to thin out the smoothie.

Recipe FAQ's

Can I use frozen fruit instead of fresh fruit?

Yes. Frozen fruit will give your smoothie a thicker, creamier consistency and help to keep it cold.

Can I add other ingredients to the smoothie?

Yes, you can add other ingredients such as yogurt, nut butter, or chia seeds to enhance the flavor and texture of your smoothie.
