Ingredients
Liquid Ingredients
- 1/2 cup brewed chamomile tea, cooled
- 1/2 cup milk (or your preferred milk alternative)
Fruits & Sweeteners
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 tbsp honey
Optional Ingredients
- Ice cubes (for a colder smoothie)
- Dried chamomile leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
- Brew the Tea: Brew 1/2 cup of chamomile tea using dried chamomile flowers or tea bags and allow it to cool to room temperature to avoid melting the ice and diluting the smoothie.
- Blend the Smoothie: In a blender, combine the cooled chamomile tea, peeled and sliced banana, honey, milk, and ice cubes if using. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well combined for a uniform texture.
- Garnish & Enjoy: Pour the smoothie into a glass. Garnish with dried chamomile leaves or a banana slice if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy the relaxing and delicious flavor combination.
Notes
- Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and better blending consistency.
- For a vegan version, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar and use plant-based milk.
- If you prefer a stronger chamomile flavor, brew the tea stronger or add more chamomile leaves for garnish.
- Ice cubes are optional but recommended if you want your smoothie chilled and refreshing.
- Adjust the thickness by adding more milk for a thinner smoothie or less milk for a thicker texture.
