Step 1: Gather and Prep Ingredients
If using fresh peaches, wash them, remove the pit, and slice into chunks. If using frozen fruit, you can add it directly from the freezer. Peel your banana and break it into chunks. Measure out your liquid and yogurt so everything is ready to go.

Step 2: Layer Ingredients in Blender
For the smoothest blend, add ingredients in this order: liquid (milk) first at the bottom, followed by yogurt, then the softer ingredients (banana), and finally the frozen or harder ingredients (peaches, raspberries, ice) on top. This layering technique helps the blender blades catch everything easily and prevents air pockets.

Step 3: Blend Until Silky Smooth
Secure the lid and start blending on low speed for a few seconds, then gradually increase to high speed. Blend for 45-60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy with no visible chunks of fruit or ice. The color should be a beautiful peachy-pink gradient. If the mixture is too thick and your blender is struggling, stop and add a splash more milk. If it’s too thin, add more frozen fruit or ice.

Step 4: Taste and Adjust
Stop the blender and taste your smoothie using a clean spoon. This is your chance to customize! Need more sweetness? Add honey or maple syrup. Want more peach flavor? Toss in a few more peach slices. Prefer it tangier? Add more raspberries or a squeeze of lemon juice. Blend again briefly after any additions.

Step 5: Serve Immediately and Enjoy
Pour into tall glasses or mason jars and serve right away while cold and fresh. Smoothies are best enjoyed immediately, as they can separate and lose their frosty texture if they sit too long. Garnish with fresh raspberries, a peach slice on the rim, a sprinkle of chia seeds, or a mint leaf for a beautiful presentation perfect for Pinterest photos!
