If you are one of those people who loves plums, you often end up buying a bunch of them, you eat 1 or 2, and then they often are left to rot in your fruit bowl.
If only you could find a more creative way to eat them…Well, wonder no more, because what better way to consume plums than from a smoothie?
What Fruit Goes Well With Plum?
Plums have quite a subtle flavor, so they tend to work well with many fruits.
However, here’s a quick list of some of the best fruits that work with plums:
- Berries
- Peaches
- Bananas
- Avocado

Can We Mix Plum With Milk?
There isn’t necessarily anything negative about adding milk to plums. However, some people report stomach aches and even diarrhea in some instances.
But, this could be due to lactose intolerance/sensitivity.
We have used dairy-free milk in this recipe, so no need to worry about this.
But if you do have dairy milk at home, there is nothing wrong with using it with plums, unless of course, you are lactose intolerant.
