Yum! I froze the banana after chopping it up so the drink would be cold without having to put ice in it. I can see this being great in cereal, I drank it as a side to some peanut butter oatmeal granola bars I'd made. Perfect complement! -
Good stuff! Rather stupid for anyone to be disappointed with the flavor or texture. It's called MILK, it's going to be runny/watery so don't expect it to be thick like a smoothie. And use RIPE bananas (brown/spotted bananas) for full flavor. There really is no need for vanilla or honey or sugar. It's great as is! -
Made this last night, then nuked it for 90 seconds.... it was very soothing! Made me very sleepy an hour later and I slept SO good last night, better than when I take melatonin! I suggested it to family with small children who struggle to get them into bed, I suggested a warm cup of "Monkey Milk" as their bedtime snack. Can't hurt, might help :)

Great & easy way to use up over ripe bananas! Kids loved it (so did I)! :)

This recipe was wonderful. I like the fact that it doesn't add extra sugar, because the banana's natural sugars sweeten the drink perfectly. I also like the hint of vanilla in the drink. It doesn't overpower the banana taste, which is something that I definitely was afraid of. I'll definitely be making this when I have extra bananas lying around.

I first had "banana juice" in the Dominican Republic and have been looking for something similar ever since. This is pretty close! I made it with two bananas and one cup of milk to make it a little thicker. I bet it would be good with chocolate syrup added or with ice cream instead of milk, too. Thanks for posting.

My name is Ami and I share my home with my husband, Carey, our two small sons, James and Charles and our daughters Meradydd (it's pronounced Meradith)and Kathrynn. Until recently, I was a Specialist in the National Guard. I'm pretty eclectic in my studies and I've learned a lot becuase of that since I don't limit myself. Right now I'm taking classes for animal care. I've also been studying a lot about herbalism and really enjoy learning about that. My mother and I also run a home based business for natural soap, balms, etc. We use only the most the natural ingredients available. I'm also a Mary Kay consultant. Busy, huh? :D I love to read and learn new things. My husband says our books will be the death of us. LOL. I love to cook and experiment. I also like to take walks, rain or not.
