There’s nothing like the taste of summer in a glass—that first sip of my blueberry peach smoothie takes me right back to lazy mornings on the porch. I stumbled onto this combo when my peach tree went wild one July, and now it’s my go-to for quick energy. The tangy blueberries and sweet peaches blend into something magical, and it’s ready before my coffee finishes brewing!

Ingredients for Blueberry Peach Smoothie

This smoothie comes together with just a handful of ingredients – the kind you probably already have in your kitchen! Here’s what you’ll need:

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (no need to thaw if frozen!)
1 cup fresh or frozen peaches, diced (I leave the skin on for extra fiber)
1 ripe banana (the spottier, the sweeter)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (vanilla works too for extra sweetness)
1/2 cup almond milk (any milk works – I’ve used coconut milk when feeling fancy)
1 teaspoon honey (optional, but I always add it when my peaches aren’t super ripe)

The frozen fruit version makes it extra thick and frosty – perfect for hot summer days!

How to Make Blueberry Peach Smoothie

This smoothie couldn’t be easier – just toss everything in the blender and let it work its magic! The whole process takes less time than toasting your bread, and the result is this creamy, dreamy drink that tastes like summer sunshine.

Step 1: Prepare Ingredients

First, gather everything on your counter – no running back to the fridge mid-blend! I like to dice my peaches (skin-on for extra nutrients) so they blend easier. If you’re using frozen fruit, no need to thaw – those icy chunks will make your smoothie gloriously thick.

Step 2: Blend Until Smooth

Now the fun part – pile everything into your blender. Start on low speed for about 10 seconds to break things up, then crank it to high for a good 30-45 seconds. You’ll know it’s ready when the mixture looks like purple velvet and there’s not a single lump left. This is when I sneak a taste and decide if it needs that extra drizzle of honey (mine usually does!).

Step 3: Serve Immediately

Pour that beautiful purple goodness straight into your favorite glass. Don’t wait – this smoothie tastes best when it’s fresh and frosty! If you must store it (though why would you?), pop it in the fridge for no more than an hour, then give it a quick stir before drinking.

Why You’ll Love This Blueberry Peach Smoothie

This isn’t just any smoothie—it’s my morning lifesaver! Here’s why you’ll adore it too:

Lightning fast: Ready in under 5 minutes (even when I’m half-asleep)
Packed with goodness: Fiber from the fruit, protein from the yogurt
Totally customizable: Swap ingredients based on what’s in your fridge
Naturally sweet: Skip the honey and let the ripe fruit do its thing

It’s the perfect balance of creamy and refreshing—like sunshine in a glass!

Tips for the Best Blueberry Peach Smoothie

After making this smoothie practically every summer morning for years, I’ve picked up some tricks that take it from good to wow:

Freeze bananas in chunks: Toss spotty bananas in the freezer – they make your smoothie ice-cream thick without watering it down.
Play with liquids: Start with 1/3 cup milk, then add more if needed. Too thick? Splash in extra. Easy!
Blend greens first: Want spinach? Pulse it with the milk before adding fruit – no leafy chunks!

My biggest tip? Taste as you go – sometimes that extra peach makes all the difference!

Variations of Blueberry Peach Smoothie

The beauty of this smoothie is how easily you can switch it up! Here are my favorite twists:

Green machine: Toss in a handful of spinach – you won’t taste it, but you’ll get all those nutrients (my sneaky mom trick!)
Tropical vibes: Swap almond milk for coconut milk and add a splash of pineapple juice
Creamy dream: Use vanilla yogurt instead of plain for extra sweetness without honey
Berry blast: Mix in a few raspberries or strawberries for a flavor fireworks show

The possibilities are endless – that’s why I never get tired of this smoothie!

Blueberry Peach Smoothie FAQs

I get asked about this smoothie all the time—here are the answers to the questions that pop up most often!

Can I use canned peaches?

Absolutely! Just drain them well first. The syrup makes things too sweet for me, but if that’s your jam, go for it! Frozen peaches actually give the best texture though – trust me on this.

Is this smoothie vegan-friendly?

Almost! Just swap the Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt and skip the honey (or use maple syrup). I’ve made it this way for my plant-based friends and they go wild for it!

How long will it keep in the fridge?

Honestly? Drink it fresh if you can. It starts separating after about an hour. If you must store it, give it a good shake or quick blend before drinking.

Can I make it without banana?

Sure thing! The banana gives creaminess, so try adding 1/4 cup more yogurt or half an avocado instead. The color gets a bit funky with avocado, but wow is it creamy!

What if my blender isn’t super powerful?

No worries! Just blend the tougher ingredients (like frozen fruit) with the liquid first for 30 seconds before adding the rest. Works like a charm every time!

Nutritional Information

Every sip of this blueberry peach smoothie packs a nutritious punch! Keep in mind these numbers are estimates – your exact counts will dance a bit depending on your fruit ripeness and milk choice. But trust me, it’s always delicious fuel!
