Description
This was grandma’s “drink, not dessert” creation every summer. A blender full of ripe peaches, cherries, and strawberries – chilled to perfection and kissed with a swirl of honey and yogurt. Served in mismatched glasses from the 70s, and gone before lunch. This smoothie tastes like golden-hour light and sticky fingers.

Advice
Use frozen fruit instead of ice for a thicker, colder smoothie that doesn’t get watery – especially if you’re sipping it slow while scrolling recipes.
