Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender first.
Add the frozen banana, cashew butter, honey or maple syrup, pure vanilla extract, and fine sea salt to the blender.
Add the ice cubes last.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds, until completely smooth.
Check the consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

For a dairy-free option, substitute milk with almond or oat milk. Use frozen banana to ensure a creamy texture without additional ice.
