Top Tips

  • Use a juicy ripe peach for the best flavour.
  • Smoothies can be high in sugar because of the fruit in them, so if serving to young children dilute them half smoothie and half water. Smoothies are also best drunk with meals, rather than between meals, to reduce the risk of tooth decay.
