Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Irish breakfast tea (strongly brewed and cooled)
- 1 medium Banana (ripe)
- 1 tablespoon Rolled oats
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1 tablespoon Honey (or sweetener of choice)
- 0.5 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup Milk (regular or plant-based)
- 4 pieces Ice cubes
Instructions
Begin by brewing a cup of strong Irish breakfast tea. Allow it to cool to room temperature or chill it in the refrigerator for a quicker option.
Peel and cut a ripe banana into smaller chunks for easy blending.
In a high-powered blender, combine the cooled Irish breakfast tea, banana, rolled oats, Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.
Pour in the milk and add the ice cubes to the blender for a thick, frosty texture.
Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness by adding more honey, if desired.
Pour into two glasses, garnish with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon or a small oat topping if desired, and serve immediately.
