FAQs
Can I use canned or frozen peaches instead of fresh?
Yes, canned or frozen peaches work well. If using canned, drain any syrup to avoid extra sweetness. Frozen peaches can help thicken the smoothie and reduce the need for ice.
Can I make this smoothie thicker?
To make a thicker smoothie, use frozen fruit or add less liquid. Adding a small banana or a spoonful of Greek yogurt can also increase creaminess and thickness.
