Tips for a great banana smoothie...

Bananas

Use ripe soft bananas as they tend to be sweeter, creamier and puree better.

Milk

You can use any type of milk such as skimmed or skinny, half or full fat milk. I use Soya, Almond or Hazelnut milk which add a real creamy texture and taste.

Alternative to Milk

A great alternative to milk is unsweetened apple juice. Its very healthy and adds extra flavour.
