Peach protein smoothie FAQ:

What can I substitute for whey protein powder?

You can substitute whey protein powder with a plant-based protein powder, like pea or hemp protein, or leave it out entirely for a lower-protein smoothie. If eliminating protein entirely, consider adding Greek yogurt for added creaminess and some protein.

How long does the peach protein smoothie last in the fridge?

The smoothie is best enjoyed immediately for optimal taste and texture. However, if stored in the fridge, it can last up to 24 hours in a sealed container. Shake or blend again before consuming, as separation may occur.

Can I use frozen peaches in this smoothie?

Yes, using frozen peaches is a great option! They will make the smoothie thicker and colder without the need for ice. If using frozen peaches, you can skip the step of slicing fresh peaches.

How can I adjust the thickness of my smoothie?

You can adjust the thickness by adding more liquid (almond or nonfat milk) if it's too thick, or use less milk if you prefer it thicker. Blending frozen peaches will also create a thicker texture.

What type of milk works best for this smoothie?

You can use any type of milk, such as almond milk, soy milk, oat milk, or regular dairy milk, depending on your dietary preferences. Each will slightly alter the flavor but will still be delicious.

Tips:

- Use frozen peaches: Using frozen peaches can give your smoothie a thicker, creamier texture without the need for additional ice.

- Blend in stages: Start by blending the almond milk, nonfat milk, and protein powder first to ensure the protein powder is fully dissolved, then add peaches and blend until smooth.

- Adjust sweetness: You can adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more or less honey.

- Add a boost: Consider adding a handful of spinach or kale for an extra boost of vitamins without significantly changing the flavor.

- Check consistency: If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a little more almond milk until you achieve your desired consistency.
