Banana Chai Smoothie

Mix up your morning routine with this creamy banana chai smoothie!

Chai is one of my favourite spice mixtures; spicy, rich and warming, it makes a delicious tea, latte or addition to any flavourful dessert. Unfortunately, store-bought lattes and smoothies are often made with chai syrup, loaded with added sweeteners and sugars making it an unhealthy option. Fortunately, with the mixture of a few simple spices, you can create your own anti-inflammatory chai blend at home, and this creamy chai smoothie really satisfies a sweet tooth!

This chai smoothie recipe is made with coconut milk and is naturally sweetened with Medjool dates, however, the coconut milk can easily be swapped with almond milk, cashew milk or dairy milk if needed, and the smoothie can easily be sweetened with maple syrup or honey instead. Not only does this smoothie work well as a simple breakfast but it also works well as a healthy snack that feels like a sweet treat.
