Summers bring the juiciest fruits, as well as the opportunity to make various delicious delicacies with them. These fruits are bliss in this season as they keep you cool in such a harsh summer. Fruits wether apricots or peaches, mangoes or pears, and the queen of fruits lychee too, all these divine fruits deserve to be converted into delicacies. Smoothie is one of them. I add oatmeal and muskmelon seed powder to thicken my smoothies. In this way, the smoothie becomes very filling to have them in my breakfast
Here is a smoothie recipe with juicy peaches which I have blended by adding a few more healthier ingredients. This fruit is widely harvested during summer months on the foothills of lower Himalayas. This fleshy and juicy fruit is not too sweet but healthier enough to contain numerous health benefits. This fibrous fruit is packed with essential vitamins and minerals which are good for our skin, eyes and hair.
