Notes

  • Frozen Banana: In case you haven't got any frozen bananas in the freezer, cut 1 banana in half and freeze it overnight. I always keep a couple of very ripe, chopped up bananas in the freezer so that they are ready to use in smoothie recipes. If you're not a fan of bananas you could use more ice cubes for a thicker texture and dates as a sweetener instead.
  • Plant Milk: Feel free to use any non-dairy milk of choice. Alternatively, you could use only water or coconut water instead but this will result in less of a sweet taste. I haven't tested this recipe using regular cow's milk.
  • Add-In Ideas: tiny bit of minced ginger, fresh mint, other fresh fruit, ice cubes, coconut water, nut butters (homemade almond butter), dates
