  • 1/2 cup ice cubes (optional, for a chilled smoothie)

Instructions

  1. Select the Peaches: Choose ripe peaches that are slightly soft and fragrant. If they are not ripe, leave them at room temperature for a couple of days until they soften.
  2. Wash and Slice: Rinse the peaches under cool water, cut them in half, remove the pit, and slice them into smaller pieces.
  3. Gather Other Ingredients: Collect the Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ice cubes.
  4. Add Ingredients to Blender: Place the sliced peaches in a high-speed blender first.
  5. Incorporate Yogurt: Add the Greek yogurt for creaminess and protein.
  6. Pour in the Milk: Add almond milk; adjust for thickness as desired.
  7. Sweeten It Up: Drizzle in honey or maple syrup, adjusting sweetness to taste.
  8. Add Flavor: Pour in vanilla extract and sprinkle ground cinnamon if using.
  9. Ice It Up: Add ice cubes for a chilled smoothie, if desired.
  10. Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high for 30-60 seconds until smooth, scraping down sides if necessary.
  11. Taste Test: Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if needed.
  12. Adjust Consistency: Add more almond milk if too thick, or more yogurt/ice if too thin.
  13. Prepare Your Glasses: Chill glasses in the freezer if desired.
  14. Pour the Smoothie: Pour the smoothie into prepared glasses.
  15. Garnish: Garnish with fresh mint leaves and optional peach slices or extra cinnamon.
  16. Enjoy Immediately: Serve fresh with a straw or spoon.
  17. Storing Leftovers: Store any leftover smoothie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
