60-Second Peach Raspberry Smoothie Recipe

For a 60-second peach raspberry smoothie, blend frozen raspberries, frozen peaches, orange juice, and yogurt until smooth. The 60 seconds describes a practical blending target, not a verified total preparation time. Using pre-sliced frozen fruit and premeasured ingredients keeps the process fast. The documented recipe makes one serving and requires no added sweetener.

The four-ingredient recipe

The University of Nebraska–Lincoln peach-raspberry smoothie recipe uses: Add all four ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. The recipe yields one serving.

• ½ cup frozen raspberries
• ½ cup frozen peach slices
• ¾ cup 100% orange juice
• ½ cup plain or vanilla yogurt

Does it really take 60 seconds?

Nebraska Extension does not specify a blending time. Its instructions simply say to combine the ingredients and blend until smooth, so 60 seconds is a useful target rather than a guarantee. Pre-sliced frozen fruit and measured ingredients make that target more realistic.

If you still need to find, wash, slice, or measure ingredients, total preparation will take longer. For comparison, Diabetes UK lists five minutes of preparation for its separate peach-and-raspberry smoothie. That supports treating "60-second" as blending time, not the entire kitchen task.

Ingredient substitutions

Nebraska Extension allows fresh or frozen fruit, other 100% juice blends, and different yogurt flavors. These substitutions can help you use what is already available.

Keep in mind that every change may affect flavor, texture, and nutrition. Fresh fruit also removes some of the convenience that makes a one-minute blend practical.

Nutrition and sugar

one serving contains 270 calories, 10 grams of protein, 5 grams of fiber, 52 grams of carbohydrate, and 39 grams of total sugars, according to the Nebraska Extension nutrition sheet. It has zero grams of added sugar.

"No added sugar" does not mean sugar-free or low-carbohydrate. People who count carbohydrates or manage diabetes should include the fruit, juice, and yogurt when planning the serving.

Using fresh fruit safely

If you substitute fresh peaches or raspberries, wash them under running water before blending. The FDA advises against using soap or produce wash.

Washing reduces bacteria but does not eliminate it. Care is especially important when serving children, older adults, pregnant people, or anyone with a weakened immune system.
