Peaches and Cream Smoothie
This delicious smoothie is a great way to use an extra peaches that you may have left over from peach season. It is a wonderful way to start the day, or to cool down and relax on hot, summers day.
Though this recipe calls for frozen peaches, you can use fresh peaches if that is what you have on hand. Using fresh peaches will result in a thinner consistency, and a milder peach flavour. You could also use canned peaches if you have them, though depending what they are in, they may be a little sweet. Just make sure to add ¾ cup of ice cubes to your smoothie before blending to make your smoothie extra delicious.
Freezing Peaches for Smoothies
If you have an abundance of peaches that you want to freeze for smoothies or desserts, wash the peaches and cut them into slices.
Place the slices onto a lined baking tray and place in the freezer. Once frozen, transfer to an airtight ziplock container.
