What to keep in mind.
6 tips from the recipe — small details that make a real difference to the final dish.
- 1Use peaches that yield slightly to pressure for natural sweetness without extra honey.
- 2Chill your yogurt and milk beforehand so you can skip the ice for a thicker smoothie.
- 3Blend on high for a full 60 seconds to break down peach skin completely.
- 4For a dairy-free version, swap yogurt and milk with coconut yogurt and almond milk.
- 5Make ahead: freeze sliced peaches on a tray, then store in a bag for instant smoothie prep.
- 6If your smoothie is too thick, add milk 1 tablespoon at a time until it reaches your desired consistency.
