Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using full-fat coconut coconut milk for its rich creaminess, but if you're looking to lighten it up, light coconut coconut milk works just fine too. You can also play around with your favorite plant-based coconut milk; oat coconut milk gives it a nice sweetness! If you don't have a chai spice blend, just mix equal parts cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom for a lovely flavor.
Tips & Notes
- •I love to keep some frozen bananas on hand; they make smoothies and shakes so creamy!
- •Feel free to double the recipe if you’re sharing with a friend or just want a larger serving.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll throw in a tablespoon of peanut butter for a protein boost, and it tastes amazing!
- •You can also swap the maple syrup for some dates if you're looking for a whole-food sweetener.
Storage & Freezing
This shake is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, you can store it in the fridge for a few hours. Just give it a good shake before enjoying, as it may separate a bit.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use fresh banana instead of frozen?
You can, but the frozen banana adds that creamy texture and coldness. If you use fresh, consider adding extra ice!
