This Summertime Peach Smoothie Is Creamy & Sweet — With A Glow-Enhancing Add*
Peaches are the quintessential refreshing-yet-decadent fruit—they're sweet, fresh, and at their peak flavor in the height of summer. (Or, when you want a quenching fruit the most.) They're also super-nutritious: One medium-size, 60-calorie peach provides 16% of your daily vitamin C needs, 9% of your vitamin A needs, and 2 grams of fiber. (Leave the skins on to reap the full benefits.)
This recipe tastes like a milkshake but actually has zero refined sugar or dairy. It instead gets its sweetness from peaches and its creaminess from frozen cauliflower (which if you haven't tried in smoothies yet, you should—it lends amazing texture and nutrients like fiber, B vitamins, and antioxidants without any funky cauliflower taste).
The collagen powder adds an extra nutrient boost, plus added benefits for skin elasticity1 and moisture2.* Because mindbodygreen's beauty & gut collagen+ formula contains several antioxidants (vitamin C, vitamin E, turmeric, and SGS), biotin, hyaluronic acid, and L-glutamine—it works overtime to help support healthy, hydrated skin and full-body health.*
If you need a little more staying power, feel free to add in your favorite nut or seed butter for some healthy fats. Either way, enjoy this smoothie as an energizing snack to support a healthy glow.*
