Notes

The real secret is ripe bananas! If you want to ripen bananas in a hurry, pop them in a brown paper bag and leave them in a warm spot. They will ripen quickly (often overnight)
Banana: make sure your banana is very ripe, this will give your banana milk the most sweetness and flavour.
Milk: Use your favourite milk
Skim milk powder: Skim milk powder adds extra protein, calcium and a creaminess to the banana milk
Honey: This can be substituted for your favourite sweetener or left out depending on your palate. Alternatives include maple syrup, coconut sugar, granulated sugar.
Turmeric: I just add this for the glorious golden colour it gives, but it can be left out.
