Ingredients

Scale

Smoothie Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups frozen peaches
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup cottage cheese
  • 1 tbsp lemon zest
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

Optional Topping

  • Whipped cream for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the smoothie ingredients, making sure the peaches are frozen for a cold and thick texture. Measure out the milk, cottage cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and sweetener.
  2. Blend the Smoothie: Add the frozen peaches, milk, cottage cheese, lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup to a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, with no chunks remaining.
  3. Serve and Garnish: Pour the smoothie into glasses and, if desired, top with a dollop of whipped cream for extra richness and a dessert-like finish. Enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can substitute the milk with almond milk or any other plant-based milk for a dairy-free version, though cottage cheese contains dairy.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey/maple syrup to taste.
  • If you prefer a thinner smoothie, add more milk to reach your desired consistency.
  • Use fresh peaches if in season, but add ice cubes to maintain a chilled smoothie.
  • Whipped cream topping is optional and adds extra calories and richness.
