This paleo peach coconut smoothie is creamy, sweet and delectable without any dairy or added sugar.
This is one of those last minute recipes that came approximately because of what I had in the kitchen - and it turned out to be one of my favorites. I had a couple of fresh peaches that needed to be used up, or a can of coconut milk in the fridge,and thought they would be great in a peaches and "cream" smoothie. I absolutely esteem the combination of fresh peaches and coconut milk with a tip of lemon.
Sweet ripe peaches make all the inequity in this smoothie. Using chilled full fat coconut milk and ice gives it the perfect milkshake-like consistency. And while this recipe will work in a regular blender, blending it in the Vitamix makes it velvety smooth. I think fresh ripe peaches and coconut milk are sweet enough on their own, and but you can always add a little of your favorite sweetener whether you like.
With just a few ingredients this paleo peach coconut smoothie is light,healthy and refreshing. Try it with paleo breakfast sausage on a biscuit for an egg-free breakfast. From Cook Eat Paleo Paleo Peach Coconut SmoothieIngredients1 cup full-fat coconut milk, chilled
