Ingredients

• 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
• 2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced
• 1 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
• 1 cup ice cubes

Instructions

1. Begin by washing and peeling the carrots. Chop them into small pieces that will blend easily. Revel in the fresh, earthy scent of the raw carrots as you chop.
2. Slice the peaches and remove the pits. The aroma of ripe, juicy peaches is sure to make your mouth water.
3. In a high-speed blender, combine the chopped carrots, peach slices, and a cup of orange juice. The tangy aroma of freshly squeezed citrus juice will start to fill your kitchen.
4. Add the Greek yogurt and honey. The yogurt adds a creamy texture, while the honey brings a hint of natural sweetness. Feel free to adjust the sweetness to your preference.
5. Top everything off with ice cubes. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. The mixture should have a lovely, velvety texture.
6. Pour the smoothie into chilled glasses. Serve immediately and enjoy the blend of flavors and textures in each refreshing sip.

Helpful Tips and Variations

• If peaches aren’t in season, use frozen peach slices for the same fruity delight.
• Replace the Greek yogurt with a dairy-free alternative for a vegan version of this smoothie.
• Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a mint leaf to add an extra layer of flavor and presentation.

Storage and Substitutions

Refrigerate any leftover smoothie in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. Stir well before serving.

Substitute pears or apricots if peaches aren’t available, as they will provide a similar sweet juiciness.
