Create this delicious Peach and Mint Smoothie in minutes. This is one of the many ways, and certainly one of the easiest ways, to enjoy some of the summer’s bounty.
I love all the fruits of summer, but especially peaches, so when they’re in season I like to use them in as many ways as possible.
This delicious smoothie is packed with all kinds of goodness; the delicious, juicy, sweet, yellow peaches, plain unsweetened yoghurt and the flavour boosters of lime juice and fresh mint leaves. It is nutritious and refreshing. It tastes far more decadent than it actually is as the yoghurt adds creaminess to the juicy peaches and for added nutrients and ease of preparation I have not peeled the peaches.
It is a recipe which is quickly prepared taking about 5 minutes to whip up. It is subtly sweet, the yoghurt and lime juice adding a delicious tang. Just put it all into a high-speed blender and blend until it is smooth and creamy.
The recipe is a great base from which to work. You can use almost any fruit as your smoothie base. Accordingly, in lieu of peaches, you could try apricots, plums, bananas or berries. I prefer to always use plain yoghurt as fruit-based yoghurts tend to contain a great deal of unnecessary added sugar. For the best results, it is important to use fully ripe peaches.
Depending on the type of fruit you use, and the ripeness of the fruit, I suggest you check the sweetness after blending. You may need to add a little extra honey or sweetener of your choice.
I have used only peaches today but sometimes, for a slight change of flavour, and to make the smoothie a beautiful shade of pink, I like to add a few strawberries or raspberries. The berries are ideal companions for the peaches.
With just a few ingredients, I feel without a doubt that this peach smoothie recipe will quickly become a favourite throughout summer.
It will take about 5 minutes to whip up.
Please let me know in the comments below if you try this delicious, refreshing drink.

Peach and Mint Smoothie
A quick, versatile, nutritious fruit and yoghurt drink, this Peach and Mint Smoothie is ideal for breakfast, as an after-school snack or a post-workout refreshment. This recipe serves 2 people but if making it for 1 person, simply halve the ingredients.
Ingredients
- 2 large peaches white or yellow *
- 1/2 cup plain yoghurt unsweetened
- 12 large fresh mint leaves
- 2 tsp lime juice * freshly squeezed
- 12 ice cubes
- 2 tsp honey * or sweetener of your choice
Instructions
-
Prepare all the ingredients.
-
Wash and dry the peaches and cut them into chunks.
-
Place all the ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Pour into glasses and enjoy.
-
Drink as soon as possible after blending as the peaches will oxidise and become a less than appealing brown shade if left too long.
Recipe Notes
*Peeling the peaches is optional. For ease of preparation, and additional nutrients and fibre, I have not peeled the peaches. If you choose to leave the skin on the peach be sure to wash the fruit well before use.
*I have used plain, unsweetened, Greek yoghurt but any plain yoghurt will be suitable. It is preferable to avoid yoghurts which have added sugar.
*I like the flavour of freshly squeezed lime juice with the peaches but you could also use lemon juice. Freshly squeezed juices are preferable to the bottled variety as they have superior flavour.
*I like to use honey as a sweetener but you may prefer to use agave nectar or rice malt syrup.
*An extra tip: to enjoy the flavour of summer on a bleak winter’s day, I like to freeze some fresh peaches at the height of the season. Chop peaches into cubes, spread them out on a shallow tray which you have lined with cling wrap and put in the freezer for a few hours. As soon as they are frozen, put into a labelled zip-lock bag and enjoy throughout winter. Just be sure that you don’t leave them too long uncovered in the freezer or they will sustain freezer-burn.

Delicious and refreshing… perfect for this weather. Peach in a smoothie is such a clever idea.
I agree, Alice – perfect for a hot day! 🙂
Stunning flavour combination – fresh, creamy and delicious.
Thanks, Brian! 🙂
It’s definitely peach season here isn’t it! So plentiful and good this year. I’m going to be sad to say goodbye to all the fruit!
I know, Lorraine – such a delicious time of year!
Great recipe, quality photos and very well written!
Thanks for your kind words, Ethan!
I could really use this smoothie right now! It’s great that it only takes 5 minutes to make, but is packed full of nutrients! Will be making this soon!
Hope you love it, Lisa 🙂
This looks delicious thank you for sharing
Enjoy, Jenny 🙂
I’d never think to mix peach with mint. I#ll have to try, I guess the tip is only a very small amount of mint so the peach comes through.
That’s exactly right! The mint just adds a bit of freshness 🙂
My husband will love this one. I am not a huge fan of mint or peaches but they are his favorite! I never thought to combine the two! Thank you for the idea
You’re most welcome, Rachel!! Hope your hubby enjoys 🙂
You are always coming up with cool flavor combos! Never tried peach with mint. I am intrigued!

Enjoy, Shatan! It’s a great combination 🙂
Yum! It sounds so good! I’ll definitely have to save this for the summer!
You will love it, Lara 🙂
I love the added lime juice! I’m curious how it tastes for sure! I would swap out the peaches with bananas or blueberries/strawberries since I have never been a fan of peaches! Fruit smoothies are super refreshing, and it’s been awhile since I made one! Pinning!
Smoothies are great, as they are so versatile! 🙂 It will be delicious with blueberries! Yum!
It looks and sounds very refreshing!! I love a pretty drink but the mint with peach is a bit much for me, i think. I would definitely try this with just Peach!
You absolutely could – it would be delicious also! 🙂

Glad to learn about this drink and I am going to prepare this drink for our Chinese new year party in early Feb. Peach is an auspicious fruit so this is going to be good sign.
Oh that sounds so lovely! I love that idea!
I love peaches but I never seem to eat enough of them, as they are so seasonal and only sold in summer. This smoothie sounds so refreshing, especially when the weather is really hot.
It is super hot here in Australia, so we are loving the stone fruit. Enjoy this when it’s Summer for you, Joanna 🙂

Oh fabulous, Lisa! So great to have peaches in abundance 🙂
I could really use this smoothie recipe right now! I am so hungry and this will take only 5 mins but it is full of taste and nutrients. Love it!
That’s right!! Nothing like something that is quick and easy, healthy and delicious 🙂

This looks a refreshing smoothie, I’ll definitely try it when I buy a peach and enjoy the flavour with my family in this hot weather in Sydney.
It is so perfect for this hot weather we are experiencing in Australia at the moment!
This sounds so good! I love most peach things. however I don’t handle the yogurt so well. I’ve gotten in a rut with my smoothies lately. I have an apple one that I’ve been doing daily and it’s getting boring. I’d like to try this peach smoothie with a yogurt alternative.
Hi Rebecca! You could absolutely make this with coconut yoghurt for example, or another dairy free option – or even a little almond milk would work well 🙂
Wow! I really love peach and this smoothie looks good and delicious. I will absolutely give this recipe a try.
Hi Agnes! Hope you’ll enjoy it 🙂

Yummy! We love smoothies and I’ve used peaches and the drinks always turn out deliciously! Peaches are definitely a highlight of warmer weather.

Oh Yum! Can’t wait until Peaches come back in season. Its impossible to find peaches this time of year where I live. I know I could use frozen but I really do enjoy fresh. Pinned for later.
Yes, will be perfect to enjoy when the weather warms up for you 🙂
Oh this sounds delicious!!!! Need to do it at home and it is so healthy. Need to eat more fruit so the smoothie idea seems the perfect thing for me.
Fantastic! This is definitely a great way to get your fruit 🙂
What an interesting combination for a drink. I love both peaches and mint but never thought of combining them. It sounds better than a virgin Mojito.
