Can I use frozen strawberries?

Yes, gradually add more milk if the smoothie is too thick until you get the consistency you want.

Can I use only fresh fruit to make this smoothie?

Yes, but the frozen fruit is what thickens up the smoothie and makes it thick and cold. Ideally, at least one or both of the fruits should be frozen. If you only have fresh you can easily freeze the fruit on a sheet pan first before making this smoothie. If you only have fresh fruit and don't have time to freeze it, then add some ice cubes to make the smoothie cold.

If you prefer to use fresh peaches, then use frozen strawberries instead of fresh strawberries (to ensure that the smoothie is cold).
