Ingredients

  • 1 15- ounce can sliced peaches drained
  • 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
  • 2 cups vanilla soy milk
  • 1/4 cup orange juice

Instructions

  • The Fruit Foundation
  • Start by adding your drained, sliced peaches into the blender. These provide the natural sugars and the vibrant orange hue of the shake.
  • Add the Creaminess
  • Scoop in the four portions of vanilla ice cream.
  • Chef's Tip: For a thicker shake, use the ice cream straight from the freezer. If you prefer a thinner consistency, let it sit on the counter for 5 minutes before scooping.
  • The Soy Milk Pour
  • Pour the two cups of vanilla soy milk over the peaches and ice cream. The vanilla-on-vanilla action (from the milk and the ice cream) creates a deep, complex flavor profile.
  • The Citrus Lift
  • Add your quarter cup of orange juice. This small amount of acidity is what prevents the shake from feeling too "heavy" or overly sugary.
  • High-Speed Fusion
  • Secure the lid and blend until the mixture is frothy, smooth, and free of any large peach chunks. It should be thick enough to hold a straw upright but smooth enough to sip easily.
