Reviews
Very enjoyable IF you have access to the best peachy peaches. I used very ripe GA peaches. Quite good. So many lack in flavor and may not come through.
This smoothie was all wrong! I wanted to like it but the oats were too pronounced, and the peach flavor was barely there.
pretty good, about 15 mins for me. a bit runny but tastes sweet. the yogurt and oats stand out, leaving the peach behind
Great for summer on-the-run bk
