Storage/Reheating
Since this smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, I recommend serving it immediately for the best texture and flavor. If you need to store any leftover smoothie, place it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will stay fresh for up to 1 day, but be sure to give it a good shake or stir before drinking as the ingredients may separate.
FAQs
Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?
I recommend drinking it right after making it for the best texture and flavor. However, if needed, you can store it in the fridge for up to 1 day. Just be sure to shake or stir it well before serving.
Can I use frozen bananas instead of fresh?
Yes, using frozen bananas will make the smoothie extra thick and creamy! If you're using frozen bananas, you may want to reduce the amount of ice cubes for the perfect consistency.
Can I add protein to this smoothie?
Absolutely! You can add protein powder, chia seeds, or even a scoop of peanut butter to increase the protein content. Just blend it in with the other ingredients.
Is this smoothie suitable for vegans?
To make this smoothie vegan, simply swap the yogurt for a plant-based yogurt and use a vegan honey alternative or omit the honey entirely.
Can I use other fruits in this smoothie?
Yes, this smoothie is versatile! You can swap the peaches for other fruits like strawberries, mangoes, or berries for different flavor combinations.
