200 g of your favourite milk (dairy or non-dairy)
1 medium sized banana
2 Tbsp Mabel & Joy’s Balance Cacao Superfoods Booster
Fab optional extra additions
A pinch of Cinnamon
A pinch of Turmeric (only a little as this spice can get a little spicy!)
Method
Warm milk in a microwave safe container. You can warm the milk up over the stove if you would prefer
Once the milk is warm (temperature depends on ambient temperature and how warm you want that inner warm hug – not too hot though so be careful)
Add warm milk to blender. Please heed manufacturer warnings about warm/hot liquids and add cold water to cool the milk down if needed
Add in the banana and Balance superfood booster powder and blend until smooth
Bring back up to desired temperature if the smoothie mixture has cooled down too much

Pour the smoothie into your favourite mug, or two. There’s enough to share with your favourite person
Top with a little nutmeg on top or sprinkle some Balance superfood powder as garnish
