Kefir Peach Smoothie
Tangy plain kefir stands in for regular milk in this peach smoothie, adding protein and gut-friendly probiotics along with a pleasant tang.
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen sliced peaches
- 3/4 cup plain kefir
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 3 ice cubes
Instructions
- 1
Add the kefir, vanilla, and honey to the blender first, then the frozen peaches and ice. Blend on high until smooth and creamy, roughly 30 to 45 seconds depending on how frozen your peaches are.

Plain kefir takes the place of the milk (or milk-and-yogurt combination) you'd normally use, and it brings noticeably more protein along with live cultures that regular milk doesn't have. Its natural tang plays especially well against sweet, ripe peaches.

If your kefir is on the thin side, use slightly less liquid or add an extra handful of frozen peaches to keep the texture thick. Fresh peaches work fine in season too — just add a couple more ice cubes to make up for the lost chill.
