- 2 bananas
- 2 peaches
Dairy
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup yogurt
Liquid and Extras
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1 tbsp honey
- 4–5 ice cubes
Instructions
- Peel and slice ripe bananas into chunks, ensuring they are soft and sweet for optimal smoothie texture.
- Wash peaches thoroughly, remove the pit, and chop into smaller pieces to blend easily.
- Add banana chunks, peach pieces, milk, and yogurt into a high-powered blender.
- Pour orange juice and drizzle honey into the blender to enhance natural sweetness and provide additional liquid.
- Drop ice cubes into the mixture to create a chilled, refreshing consistency.
- Secure the blender lid tightly and pulse for 15-20 seconds to break down fruit.
- Increase blender speed to high and blend continuously for 30-45 seconds until smooth and creamy.
- Stop blending when no fruit chunks remain and the smoothie reaches a uniform, silky texture.
- Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if desired.
- Pour immediately into tall glasses, ensuring even distribution of the smoothie.
- Optional: Garnish with a small peach slice or banana chip for visual appeal.
- Serve chilled and enjoy immediately for maximum flavor and nutritional benefits.
Notes
- Choose ultra-ripe bananas with brown spots for deeper sweetness and smoother blending.
- Select juicy, fragrant peaches at peak ripeness to maximize natural flavor intensity.
- Freeze banana and peach chunks beforehand for an extra thick, frosty smoothie consistency without diluting taste with additional ice.
- Swap dairy milk with almond, oat, or coconut milk for vegan or lactose-free variations that maintain creamy texture.
