Method:

I always like to keep some bananas in the freezer, if you have never frozen a banana, here’s how.  Peel bananas ( preferably ones that are ripe to just over) and fill a ziplock back or lay in a Tupperware. If you don’t have frozen banana just add a handful of ice.

Add all the ingredients into a blender and blend til smooth.  Enjoy.
