Tips:

  • Choose ripe bananas: Overripe bananas have a sweeter flavor and blend more smoothly.
  • Add some greens: Spinach, kale, or other leafy greens add nutrients and a boost of flavor to your smoothie.
  • Use frozen fruit: Frozen fruit helps to thicken your smoothie and make it more refreshing. You can also use fresh fruit, but you may need to add some ice to get the same consistency.
  • Add healthy fats: Nut butter, avocado, or chia seeds add healthy fats and creaminess to your smoothie.
  • Use unsweetened dairy or plant-based milk: Sweetened milk can make your smoothie too sugary. If you want a sweeter smoothie, add a little honey or maple syrup to taste.
  • Experiment with different flavors: There are endless possibilities when it comes to banana smoothie flavors. Try adding different fruits, spices, or extracts to create a smoothie that you love.
