A banana milkshake is easy to make with a few ingredients.It can be made in a few minutes.What's not to love?The question is with dairy or without.
Step 1: The bananas should be put into the blender.
It is best if it is frozen.It will be fine if it's ripe.The need for more ice is eliminated when it's frozen.
Step 2: Milk and ice can be added to the blender.
The process will go a lot faster if the ice is crushed.What kind of milk?It's up to you.Are you watching calories?You can go non-fat, soy or almond.Do you want something creamy?The trick is to drink 2% or coconut milk.
Step 3: Add some ice cream.
Your creativity can take over here.The banana will shine, but the world is your Baskin Robbins right now.It could happen if you wanted 31 different flavors.What are you looking for?Some suggestions?Chocolate, peanut butter, strawberry, coconut, mango, or coffee.Banana, if you can handle it.
Step 4: Add some almonds.
This can be omitted if you want a bit of a zing and texture.If you don't have almonds on hand but would like something else in your drink, add 1/2 cup of oats, quinoa or peanut butter.Are you a fan of almonds?Go on and add more.If you want, add the extract.It will bring out the natural flavors in your shake.
Step 5: When mixture is smooth, blend ingredients.
If ice gets lodged in the bottom of your blender, you have to mix it with your spoon.The process should take a few minutes.
Step 6: To make it taste better, add sugar to it.
This is an excuse for a taste test.Try to get a sample of how much sugar it needs.It's a good idea to use honey and a sugar substitute.A small amount should be enough.
Step 7: Pour into mugs.
The milkshake will stay thick and cold in a mug.If you have leftovers, keep them in the fridge or freezer.
Step 8: Enjoy!

Step 9: Add ripe bananas to your smoothie.
Bananas are good for a thicker drink.
Step 10: Add ice and liquid of your choice.
It's easier to use crushed ice on a blender.You can use soy, almond, or coconut as a milk substitute.Chocolate, peanut butter, and other sweeter, nuttier flavors are included in your traditional milkshake.A smoothie that combines better with other fruits and vegetables is made with juice, like orange, apple, or pineapple.
Step 11: You can add sugar and flavors to try.
If you've used juice or coconut milk, bananas are sweet enough that they don't need added sugar.Why don't you try it?The ones mentioned in the previous step will be great, but the limits are only your imagination.It might work if it's fruity, vegetable-y, chocolatey, or nutty.Depending on how powerful you want the flavor, go for 1/2 cup or less.
Step 12: Blend away.
It's time to whip it up.It should take a couple of minutes.If the ice decides to be difficult, it may need mixing once or twice.Add extra liquid or fruit to adjust thickness.
