Tips & Variations

Use ripe mango and banana for natural sweetness and better flavor.

For an extra boost, add a handful of spinach or a scoop of protein powder.
If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash of water or orange juice to thin it out.

FAQs

Can I use other frozen fruits instead of peaches?

Yes, frozen pineapple, berries, or mango chunks are great alternatives that will complement the tropical flavors well.

Is Greek yogurt necessary for this smoothie?

Greek yogurt adds creaminess and protein, but you can substitute with regular yogurt or a plant-based yogurt if preferred, keeping the texture slightly different.
