It’s peach season here in Colorado, and it wouldn’t be summertime in Colorado without some fresh peaches from our local farmer’s market. In honor of one of our favorite stone fruits, we thought we’d share a recipe today that is just ‘peachy!’
Nothing says summer more than biting into a fresh, juicy peach, and this green smoothie recipe is the perfect way to use all those perfectly ripe peaches that start popping up in local farmer’s markets this time of year.
Peaches are a relatively low-sugar fruit, so they won’t spike your blood sugar and leave you crashing in a few hours. Peaches are also high in dietary fiber to help keep you regular, and a great source of immune-boosting Vitamin C.
This smoothie recipe is a great intro to green smoothies – it’s perfect for green smoothie newbies and kiddos. It really does taste like peach pie in a jar!
We hope you enjoy this yummy green smoothie! Make sure to share it with your non-smoothie loving friends – who knows, you might have some green smoothie converts.
With love and summer peaches,
Jo & Jules
