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.

Ingredients you’ll need

Here’s a list of ingredients you’ll need to make this milkshake. You can find my recipe card at the bottom of this post for the complete list with their amounts.

  • Large bananas: You’ll need 2.
  • Vanilla ice cream
  • Milk: You can use any type.
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Ground ginger

Simply blend all these ingredients together in a blender, pour into glasses, and serve.

Easy, yet so delicious!

The printable recipe card with the FULL list of ingredients and instructions can be found at the bottom of this post.

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.

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. :)
