Paleo Summer Grapefruit Peach Raspberry Smoothie – refresh yourself this summer with this sweet and cooling drink!
I don’t know if you can tell but I’ve been packing myself silly with courgettes and smoothie bowls. Seriously, the food you see on my blog is exactly what I make at home – you could probably gauge where I’m at with my taste buds by just looking at my latest posts. As I explained, my eating habits have been a bit of mess lately so I’m trying to work my way back to optimal.
This Paleo Summer Grapefruit Peach Raspberry Smoothie is a warm-weather, healthy but sweet recipe which I absolutely adore. I don’t get to have peaches much because they’re barely in season in the UK but when they are, they are plump and fabulous hunny!
Grapefruit is a funny little fruit, I mean, it’s not completely sweet or sour but it has a slightly sweet and sour taste. Would you agree? However, the bitterness is something to behold. If you can eat a grapefruit on it’s own then I think you’re a bit of legend LOL. I have found that segmenting the grapefruit removes the bitterness!
With a smoothie this rich in vitamins and antioxidants, you’ll probably feel like you couldn’t catch a cold for the next 5 years!
I’ve been super busy in my life lately, I apologise if you’ve been back here a few times, only to catch the same featured recipe on the home page. I can’t say that I will be posting more often but this is because I’ve been working on some other things in my life! Like, how I’m starting up a catering businessy thing-a-ma-jig. Had my first client yesterday and it went so well! I already want another..
As smooth as cool peachess.. or a Summer Grapefruit, Peach and Raspberry Smoothie.
- 1 Grapefruit
- 1 Peach
- 1 Cup Frozen Raspberries
- ½ cup of Coconut Milk or any milk you like
- Process the ingredients in a high powered blender till smooth.
- Enjoy!
Segmenting your grapefruit will help remove most of the bitterness of this fruit! Takes a little longer but if you're not a fan of the bitterness, I suggest it!

July at 4:22 AMI would say I am not a grapefruit fan. Perhaps pairing it with raspberries would help. Love the colour of this smoothie, and the flavours are summer perfect for sure.

July at 1:05 PMYes, I have found that segmenting the grapefruit and pairing with the raspberries definitely combats the bitterness, but it’s delicious!
