Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Ripe bananas
- 2 cups Milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 tablespoon Honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract (optional)
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Peel the ripe bananas and cut them into chunks for easier blending.
Add the banana chunks to a blender.
Pour in the milk. Feel free to use your choice of dairy or plant-based milk, such as almond, oat, or soy milk.
If you prefer added sweetness, drizzle in the honey or maple syrup. This step is optional as ripe bananas are naturally sweet.
For an extra layer of flavor, add the vanilla extract (optional).
Toss in the ice cubes to make the drink cold and refreshing.
Blend all the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds.
Pour the banana milk drink into glasses and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a banana slice or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
