I doubled this recipe to four servings. Because my peaches were frozen, I skipped the ice. I also used nonfat plain greek yogurt and chose to use vanilla extract in this drink. This is one of the best smoothies we've had in a long time. Both my kids asked me to make this again tomorrow. VERY good.

I never would have thought about putting honey or vanilla extract into a peach smoothie. I honestly just eyeballed most of the ingredients into my Magic Bullet. I used frozen peaches and didn't use any ice (I don't have an ice machine and we usually don't keep ice on hand). I also used vanilla yogurt instead of plain 'cause, again, that's what I had on hand. This will definitely make it onto my smoothie rotation. :)

Well done with the recipe! The honey and vanilla REALLY added to the drink. I had to substitute a few ingredients. Instead of orange juice, I used Orange-Peach-Mango juice. Instead of plain yogurt, I used orange sherbet. Yum. This is the perfect recipe to use as a base for other flavored smoothies.

"Instead, it tasted more like a banana-orange smoothie." Did you use fresh orange juice or concentrate? That can make a big difference. I have found that using reconstituted concentrate gives a much stronger flavor than bottled or fresh squeezed. In things like this, fresh is always better. The flavor of the peaches also has a lot to do with it. You might reducing the juice and adding water or more ice. I eliminated the banana, used 1/2 c. juice and 1 c. ice, and it tasted like a fuzzy navel. Delicious

There is no mistaken that this is a peach drink. That is the only fruit that can be tasted. I had some peaches I bought at the grocery store that didn't have a whole lot of flavor. I peeled, sliced, and froze them looking for a drink to use them in and found this. I do use a little more peaches than the recipe called for, but it is difficult to precisely measure sliced frozen peaches. Plus, it gives it even more of that good peach flavor. I also use a frozen 1/2 banana instead of a room temperature one. My ice cubes are not crushed, to help with measuring a 1/2 cup, I just used 5 ice cubes. This is a healthy and tasty way to get in some fruit during the day. TY

This is a nice and healthy smoothie. The banana diminished some of the peach flavor that I was anticipating would dominate the drink.

I mixed this up using all the directed ingredients, using plain Greek yogurt and vanilla. I made no substitutions or eliminations of fruit and everything was cold. Given this smoothie's title and given there were plenty of peaches in this recipe (and those I used were ripe, juicy and sweet), I really expected a bigger, bolder peach flavor. Instead, it tasted more like a banana-orange smoothie. Not saying it wasn't good, but it hardly had anything peachy about it other than its color (and that was no doubt because of the orange juice). The four stars are Hubs' rating - truth be told, in my view this was just an average three stars.

Very yummy smoothie! I had low fat peach yogurt so used that and skipped the honey. My banana was frozen and that helped make a very nice consistency. Hopefully I'll be able to find more inexpensive peaches and enjoy this all summer!
