Instructions
- Start by preparing your fruits. Peel the peaches and nectarines, then carefully cut around the pit to remove it. You should be left with only the juicy fruit flesh.
- In a high-powered blender, add the peeled and pitted peaches and nectarines.
- Next, pour in the milk. This will help to blend the fruit smoothly.
- Add the vanilla extract to give a hint of warmth and sweetness to the milkshake.
- Add the ice cubes. This will chill your milkshake and give it a refreshing, cool taste.
- Blend the mixture until it's smooth and creamy. Depending on your blender, this could take between 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Taste the milkshake. If you prefer a sweeter drink, add honey to taste. Blend again to mix in the honey.
- Pour the milkshake into glasses and serve immediately. Enjoy the refreshing, sweet taste of summer in every sip!
Tips
- For a vegan alternative, replace the milk with a dairy-free option like almond milk or soy milk.
- If you prefer a thicker milkshake, you can add a scoop of vanilla ice cream instead of the ice cubes.
- For an adult version, add a splash of bourbon or peach schnapps before blending.
