🍑 Peach & Spinach “Green Glow” Smoothie

🍑 Peach & Spinach “Green Glow” Smoothie

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Fresh baby spinach (tightly packed)

  • 1 ½ cups Sliced peaches or nectarines (frozen works best for that thick texture)

  • ½ Banana (adds creaminess and natural sweetness)

  • ¾ cup Liquid base (Unsweetened almond milk, coconut water, or orange juice)

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (optional, for extra protein and a smoother finish)

  • 1 tsp Freshly squeezed lemon juice (keeps the green color bright)

Instructions

  1. Liquid First: Pour your liquid base into the blender. This helps the blades move freely and prevents “air pockets.”

  2. Greens Second: Add the fresh spinach. Blend the liquid and spinach together first if you want a completely smooth, speckle-free drink.

  3. The Rest: Add the peaches, banana, yogurt, and lemon juice.

  4. Blend: Start on low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend for 45–60 seconds until the mixture is perfectly vibrant and smooth.

  5. Serve: Pour into a tall glass and add those stylish chevron straws!


Pro-Tips for the Best Result

  • Consistency: If it’s too thick, add a splash more liquid. If it’s too thin, add a few ice cubes or more frozen fruit.

  • Sweetness: Peaches can vary in sweetness. If it’s a bit tart, add a drizzle of honey or a single pitted date.

  • Storage: This is best enjoyed immediately, but you can keep it in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours (just give it a good shake before drinking).
