This will make about 1 1/2 large servings or 3 smaller servings.

Notes

Use frozen bananas for best results. The key to a good smoothie is getting it cold and thick. Frozen bananas are key in making this the case. To freeze, cut your very ripe bananas into 2-3 inch chunks. Lay on a parchment lined cookie sheet and flash freeze for about one hour before transferring to a freezer safe container or bag. This keeps them from sticking together in big clumps.
This smoothie is best eaten fresh. While you can freeze leftovers, I find that the smoothie has the freshest flavor right when made. It is not recommended to refrigerate the smoothie either. Any leftovers should be frozen and then thawed before eating.
If your peaches and bananas are frozen, an extra splash of milk may help. If using frozen bananas and peaches, and the smoothie is having a hard time blending, add an extra splash of milk to help. You can also use a tamper if your blender comes with one.
