Pear Yoghurt Smoothie with Mint
Taste
Creamy and mild, sweet from the pear, with a fresh apple note and a cool mint finish.
About this smoothie
Pear and dairy are a gentle, comforting combination: the soft, sweet fruit blends into a smooth, creamy drink with yoghurt and milk. Half a red apple adds freshness, and fresh mint gives the finish a light, cool note. The old recipe named mint in the title but not in the ingredients; it is included here.
Yoghurt and milk make the smoothie more filling than a water-based one, so it works well as a breakfast. Plant-based yoghurt and a plant drink make it dairy free.
Bartender tips
Chill the pear beforehand for a colder smoothie without ice.
Greek yoghurt makes it thicker; add a splash more milk if needed.
Variations
Vanilla pear
Replace the mint with a pinch of vanilla for a dessert-like smoothie.
