Spiced Banana Milkshake – This deliciously thick banana milkshake is so full of flavour, and is perfectly spiced with a hint of cinnamon and ginger. A perfect, indulgent pick-me-up drink!
Spiced Banana Milkshake
You’ve tried (and loved!) my Banana Breakfast Smoothie, and today I bring you another cold banana beverage, which you are going to love even more.
Keep this one as your occasional, indulgent drink though, and not your every morning shake. 😉
This Spiced Banana Milkshake only requires 5 simple ingredients to make, one of them being vanilla ice cream. Yep. This milkshake is SO good.

NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements. Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.
This Spiced Banana Milkshake is:
- made with only 5 simple ingredients (that includes ice cream!)
- Super quick and easy to make
- Packed full of delicious flavours
- Perfect for a quick pick-me-up indulgent drink
How thick is this milkshake? Quite thick, but not too much that you can’t sip it through a straw. It’s just right! If you’d like a thinner milkshake, simply added a little more milk.
Can I keep this milkshake in the fridge overnight? I wouldn’t recommend it. It’s best to make it as soon as you need it, and serve immediately.

This milkshake is just everything, Marsha! You know how I love my bananas–and adding them in pretty much everything. Haha. So as you can guess, I’m totally drooling over this big time! Wishing you and your fam a wonderful weekend! 🙂
Thanks, Demeter! 🙂 You too!
Banana milkshake is one of my favourite recipes. But I have never added cinnamon to it. So this time I need to try it with cinnamon. Thanks for sharing this recipe Marsha. 🙂
I hope you get to try it, Puja! 🙂
My kind of milkshake…this sounds like a such a great treat!
These would be gone in seconds especially around grownups. I;m loving the combination of cinnamon+ginger with banana and would definitely try this for our datenight soon 🙂
Thank, Molly! Enjoy! 🙂
I love banana milkshakes!! I love the spices that you use! I don’t know why, but I wouldn’t have thought of adding ginger in with the cinnamon! What a great combo! I can’t wait to make your delicious shake!
Thanks, Elaine!
Ok Marsha…I need to try this! I always have frozen bananas on hand and I blend them often, but have never thought to add ginger to them. Such an easy recipe that I’ll be sharing everywhere.
Thanks, Traci! I hope you get to try it! 🙂
