a delightful daily smoothie for peach season

my wish for you is that each summer, you get the pleasure of fully indulging in peach season. there is truly no better season in my opinion. 

i have played with this combination for over a decade and still, it is my favourite. more importantly, i have yet to meet a little one who does not love the gentleness of this combination.

peaches can be fresh or frozen. if i have an abundance, i will freeze what might not be eaten in time, for another time! work with what you have & find the perfect ratios for your palate!

don't miss out on the additions and alternatives offered at the bottom (arguably, the best part of this)!
