Why this smoothie feels fresh
Peach brings natural sweetness and a soft summer flavor, yogurt or kefir adds protein, chia gives gentle texture, and mint keeps the drink fresh. It is a hydration-friendly smoothie, not a detox or skin miracle.
Recipe ingredients
- 1 ripe peach, sliced
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt or kefir
- 3/4 cup cold water or unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 4 fresh mint leaves
- Optional: 1 teaspoon lemon juice
How to prepare it
- Add liquid, yogurt, peach and mint to the blender.
- Blend until smooth.
- Add chia seeds and pulse briefly.
- Let sit for 3 minutes, then add more liquid if you prefer a lighter texture.

This works well as a morning snack or a light afternoon drink in warm weather. If you manage blood sugar, use half a peach and choose unsweetened yogurt.
Variations
