Health benefits of peaches

We are always looking for more ways to include fruit in our diet and smoothies are such an easy way, and kids love them too. They are a great way to get kids involved in the kitchen as well, as they can throw everything in to the blender.

Peaches are a good source of iron, folate and vitamins K and E. Not only that, but they are super sweet when they are ripe and in season, so you don't need to use any other sweetener (although you can if you like your smoothie super sweet).

Is it creamy?

This smoothie is super creamy and has a lovely tropical taste to it. Not only are the blended peaches and banana creamy, but we have used coconut milk and some yoghurt along with the milk to make it extra creamy. The coconut milk gives it that tropical taste, however if you are not a fan you can always leave it out.

It you want to make this smoothie even more refreshing on a hot summer day, then freeze the peaches overnight and add them to the blender. Not only will it make it colder, but peaches are actually creamier when blended from frozen.

Using canned Peaches

If you don't have fresh or frozen peaches, and you want to make this out of season then you can use canned peaches. Go for the ones in fruit juice and make sure they are fully drained first.

Extra tips

• For the best and sweetest peach smoothie, you want to use really ripe peaches.
• Make this vegan by using a vegan milk and yoghurt.
• If you don't have any fresh peaches, you can use frozen.
• To add a little extra flavour to this smoothie, add half a teaspoon of cinnamon.
• You could always make a thicker version of this and serve it in a bowl. Add loads of toppings and eat with a spoon.
• The leftover pulp from our Peach Iced Tea can be used in this to make it extra peachy.
