Fresh Peach Smoothie


When you hear the word "fresh", you'd probably think of the word "farm" or "cows". At least, I do. But when it comes to peaches, "fresh" means it came from my refrigerator. Not a farm. Well, not for the last 3 weeks . And somehow we're going to have to deal with that. And an amazing smoothie. <3




                                                             Hopefully.






                               
         Cut them peaches after washing them for 30 seconds. Also throw in the blueberries, milk, ice, and everything else.

                                                                                                                               
                     
                      This is what the...... mixture (?) looks like after 10 seconds into blending.
                     

                        

                                                      The view after 30 seconds.




I decided to rebel and add in some extra h-honey




And mix the honey in.





                                                         And you're all done! :)



You will need:

1 large peach - cut into slices
2/3 cup of milk
1 banana
A handful of washed blueberries 
1 1/2 tablespoon of honey ( adjust to your needs)
1-3 cups of ice ( again, adjust to your needs)




How to do it:

1. Mix all the ingredients to together- (after peeling the banana, slicing the peaches,etc)
2.Mix the ingredients together, on high, for 1-2 minutes depending of your blender or until it is smooth and creamy.
 (By the way, I use Vitamix)
3. Enjoy!

Orange Heaven Milkshake


This is a match-made in heaven for the folks who love oranges. Or milkshakes. I know that I'm not particularly a fan of orange milkshakes, but trust me, this is really good and strong!


 1 1/8 Cup  Milk
1/4  Cup Ice Water
1 12 oz can of frozen orange juice concentrate (thawed) or 3 cups of orange juice
8-10 pieces of ice
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup of honey
1 banana (ripe works just fine)







How you do it:

*Makes three servings.*

Simply put all of the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into three-four 12 oz. glasses

Tip: If you want it to be milkier and a bit thinner, add more milk. If you want it to be frothy and frosty, add slightly less milk







The ingredients:)







Mix em' all together. Here I'm using my Vitamix Blender to do the magic.






After mixing for about a  minute and a  half, it turned bubbly and frothy.  Just perfect.









Yummy  <3
