Creamy banana and cool mint are a combination that works a bit like mint chocolate chip ice cream, only fresher. Almond milk keeps it light and dairy free.

Banana Mint Smoothie with Almond Milk
Taste
Creamy and sweet with a cool, fresh mint finish and a hint of almond.
About this smoothie
Banana is the classic smoothie base because it adds sweetness and a creamy texture without any sugar; it also contains potassium. Fresh mint cuts through that sweetness with a cool, clean aroma. Almond milk, a plant-based drink made from almonds and water, is light with a subtle nutty note. With only three ingredients, this smoothie is ready in two minutes and works well for breakfast or as a refreshing snack.
Bartender tips
A frozen banana makes it thick like a milkshake.
Too much mint can taste medicinal; add leaves gradually.
Variations
Chocolate mint
Add a teaspoon of cocoa powder or a few cocoa nibs.
