Only three ingredients, and the nectarine does most of the work: juicy, fragrant and sweet. Pear adds body, coconut water keeps it light.
1
nectarine large, stoned
½
pear ripe, cored
5 oz
coconut water
Garnish: No garnish · Ice: Served up, no ice
Light and juicy, with fragrant stone fruit and a mild pear sweetness.
Nectarines are closely related to peaches but have smooth skin, which makes them ideal for smoothies: no peeling needed. In high summer they are sweet and fragrant enough to carry a drink on their own. Pear adds a softer texture and a mild sweetness.
Nectarines contribute vitamin C and some beta carotene. With coconut water as the base, this is a thirst quenching smoothie for hot days rather than a filling meal.
No, the skin is thin and smooth.
Yes, the flavour is very similar.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
