Banana Boost

Banana Horchata Recipe

Even with a simple recipe like this, we can feel proud of ourselves for making mindful choices that nourish and support our best wellbeing. Instead of grabbing a sugar-laden soda or buying a dairy-based milkshake, we can enjoy consuming this sweet and creamy treat, knowing it benefits our body while satisfying our mind.

Banana Nut Milk Horchata 

Ingredients:

1 - 2 frozen bananas*
1.5 - 2 cups vanilla almond milk, regular almond milk, oat milk, hemp milk, or other nut milk
2 dates, pitted
extra generous pinch of cinnamon
salt, to taste

Instructions:

Blend all ingredients in a blender. Add less nut milk for a thicker consistency, or add extra frozen bananas for a creamier milkshake-like consistency.

*peel bananas before freezing and break them into smaller chunks to make them easy to blend
Tip: Adding a fresh banana to this recipe gives it an extra boost of banana greatness!
