Almond Milk Banana Smoothie Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp raw cacao powder
• 1 whole banana

One great thing about this banana almond milk smoothie is that you can truly make it your own. When it comes to the banana, you can use either a frozen banana or a fresh banana. Using fresh ripe bananas will require a few ice cubes, whereas frozen bananas will require less ice.

When it comes to almond milk, I prefer plain unsweetened almond milk, but you can use unsweetened vanilla almond milk or even any non-dairy milk of your choice. Cashew milk is an easy swap for almond milk. This is my favorite almond milk.

You will also need a high speed blender. I have this Vitamix blender, and I love it. It’s available online here: Vitamix Blender. There are also many different blenders available online for different price ranges, and abilities. You can find those here: Blenders. 

How to Make a Smoothie with Almond Milk and Banana 

First, add the almond milk to the blender. 

Then add the banana, vanilla extract, and a handful of ice to the blender. If you freeze banana slices in advance you shouldn’t need any additional ice. 

Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until smooth. Pour the almond milk with banana smoothie into a tall glass. 

Grab a straw and enjoy this great smoothie right away.

The mild nutty flavor of the almond milk pairs perfectly with the natural sweetness of the banana.
