Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium Ripe Peaches (peeled, pitted, and chopped)
  • 2 cups Vanilla Ice Cream (about 4 scoops)
  • 1 cup Milk (adjust based on desired thickness)
  • 1-2 tablespoons Honey or Sugar (optional) (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (optional)
  • 4-5 cubes Ice Cubes (optional) (if using fresh peaches or for a thicker consistency)
  • Whipped Cream or Fresh Peach Slices (optional, for garnish) as desired

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Peaches
    Peel, pit, and chop the ripe peaches into small chunks. If you’re using frozen peaches, there's no need to thaw them.
  • Add Ingredients to the Blender
    Place the chopped peaches, vanilla ice cream, milk, and optional sweeteners (honey or sugar) into the blender. Add a splash of vanilla extract if desired. If using ice cubes, add them as well.
  • Blend the Mixture
    Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the blender as needed to ensure everything is well combined.
  • Taste and Adjust Sweetness
    Taste the milkshake and adjust the sweetness if needed by adding more honey or sugar. Blend again for a few seconds to mix.
  • Serve and Garnish
    Pour the milkshake into glasses and garnish with whipped cream, fresh peach slices, or a drizzle of honey. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  1. Adjust Sweetness
    Peaches vary in sweetness, so you may not need to add any sweetener at all. Always taste the milkshake before adding sugar or honey and adjust according to your preference.
  2. Dairy-Free Option
    For a dairy-free version, substitute regular milk with almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk. Use dairy-free vanilla ice cream to maintain the creamy texture.
  3. Frozen Peaches for a Thicker Shake
    If you want a thicker, frostier milkshake, use frozen peaches instead of fresh ones. You can also add extra ice cubes if desired.
  4. Control Consistency
    If your milkshake is too thick, add a bit more milk. If it's too thin, add more ice cream or peaches. The consistency should be creamy and smooth, but you can adjust based on personal preference.
  5. Healthier Alternatives
    For a lower-calorie version, consider using low-fat or non-fat milk and light ice cream. You can also skip the sweeteners if the peaches are sweet enough.
  6. Customization
    Feel free to experiment with different flavors, such as adding a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or a dash of vanilla extract to enhance the taste. You can also blend in some spinach or protein powder for a nutrient boost!
  7. Serving Suggestions
    Serve the milkshake in a chilled glass to keep it cold for longer. Garnish with whipped cream, fresh peach slices, or a drizzle of honey for extra flavor and a fun presentation.
By following these tips, you can easily adjust the recipe to fit your dietary preferences or create a version that suits your taste buds perfectly!
