Light and juicy, with crisp apple, fragrant peach, a warm ginger note and a cool mint finish.
Apple is one of the most versatile smoothie fruits: juicy, mildly sweet and available all year. Here it meets a ripe peach, which adds a floral aroma and a softer texture, and fresh ginger, which brings a gentle warmth. A few mint leaves keep the flavour fresh.
Apples and peaches both provide fibre, especially with the skin left on. Using only fruit and water, it is a light smoothie for a summer breakfast or a refreshing afternoon glass.
No, a blender handles the skin well. Peel it only if you dislike the slightly furry texture.
