Peach in a smoothie
Soft, mild and one of the lightest ways to fill the frozen half of a blend.
Between 39 g and 116 g in a glass, depending on what else is in it. The readings are 2 of 3 for thickening, 1 for creaminess and 2 for sweetness. Thickness and sweetness are what peach is really for. Whatever the blend needs on the other axis has to come from somewhere else in the glass.
Peach sits at the gentle end of the frozen fruit list — enough body to thicken, mild enough that it never takes over. That makes it the fruit to reach for when something else in the glass is meant to be the flavor, and one of the least costly ways to get a blend cold and thick.
In the ratio model every ingredient fills one of five roles. Peach is a frozen fruit: the body of the drink, doing the chilling and most of the thickening. That is what decides how much of it goes in, which is the next question on this page.
How much peach to put in a smoothie
The frozen share of a 2¼-cup glass is about three quarters of a cup. As the only fruit in the blend, peach fills all of it — 116 g. Paired with a second fruit it takes between 39 g and 116 g, depending on which of the two leads.
Above that it stops pouring and turns into something you eat with a spoon. Below it there is not enough frozen weight to thicken anything, and you end up with a cold juice.

What peach does to the texture
Every ingredient on this site is rated out of three on the only three jobs that matter in a blender. Those ratings are what the substitution engine scores against, so they are the same numbers the rest of the site works from.
There is real work being done on the texture here. Add peach and you can usually pull some liquid back out, which is exactly the trade the ratio calculator makes for you.
The edges soften slightly. That is the difference between a blend that tastes finished and one that tastes like fruit and water, but the mouthfeel is not being carried here.
Sweetens noticeably. Stack peach with a second sweet ingredient and the drink tips into dessert territory faster than the calorie total suggests.
Thickness and sweetness are what peach is really for. Whatever the blend needs on the other axis has to come from somewhere else in the glass.
Peach nutrition
Per 100 g so it can be compared against anything, and per cup so it matches what actually goes in the jar. One cup of peach weighs 155 g.
Figures for frozen peach. Everything on the site — every recipe, every calculator — sums from these same numbers, so a total you see elsewhere will always agree with this table.
What goes well with peach
Its best partners
banana , mango , greek yogurt , oat milk and pineapple . Each of those either covers something peach does not do, or leans the same way hard enough to make the drink taste deliberate.

What to use instead of peach
Each stand-in is scored against peach on all three jobs at once, by the same engine behind the substitution calculator. Calories and sugar are for one everyday measure of the replacement; the smaller figure underneath is the difference against the same measure of peach.
