Scale
Liquid Base
- 1/2 cup brewed chamomile tea, cooled
- 1/2 cup milk (or your preferred milk alternative)
Main Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 tbsp honey
Optional
- Ice cubes (optional, for a colder smoothie)
- Dried chamomile leaves (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
- Brew the Tea: Brew 1/2 cup of chamomile tea using your preferred method. Once brewed, let the tea cool to room temperature to avoid curdling the milk and to ensure a smooth blend.
- Blend the Smoothie: In a blender, add the cooled chamomile tea, peeled and sliced banana, honey, milk, and ice cubes if using. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, making sure all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Garnish & Enjoy: Pour the smoothie into a glass. Optionally, garnish with dried chamomile leaves and/or a banana slice to enhance the presentation. Serve immediately and enjoy the soothing flavors of this delightful smoothie.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and creaminess.
- Adjust honey amount based on desired sweetness or substitute with agave syrup for a vegan option.
- Milk alternatives such as almond, oat, or soy milk work well for different flavor profiles.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
- Ice cubes can be omitted if you prefer a less chilled smoothie or if your chamomile tea is already cold.
