Enjoy the delicious taste of persimmons, in season from October to November, with this delightful cafe-style recipe right at home. This sweet and smooth persimmon smoothie is a perfect treat for a cozy afternoon or even a light breakfast.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe persimmons (not frozen)
- 100ml yogurt
- 1 handful of ice cubes
- 150ml milk
- 2 tablespoons honey (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s get all the smoothie ingredients ready. Prepare 100ml of plain yogurt, a handful of ice cubes for a refreshing chill, 150ml of milk for creaminess, and 2 tablespoons of honey for sweetness.
Step 2
Next, gather your star ingredient: 2 ripe persimmons. Using fresh, ripe persimmons will ensure the best texture and flavor for your smoothie.
Step 3
Wash the persimmons thoroughly. Peel them and remove the stems. Cut each persimmon in half and carefully scoop out the white pithy core in the center. It’s recommended to remove this core as it can sometimes cause bitterness or be difficult to digest. If you are using frozen persimmons, running them under warm water can help make peeling easier.
Step 4
Now, combine the prepared persimmons, yogurt, milk, ice cubes, and honey in a blender (or a food processor). Blend everything together until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. If the smoothie seems too thick and isn’t blending well, add a little more milk or water until you achieve your desired texture.
Step 5
Once everything is smoothly blended, your wonderfully smooth, cool, and sweet persimmon smoothie will be ready in no time! Pour it into a glass and enjoy immediately.
