Ingredients:

  • 1 large ripe banana (150 grams)
  • 2 cups whole milk (480 ml)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons honey or sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 small pinch of salt (1 gram)

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Banana: Peel the ripe banana and slice it into 1-inch chunks. Using ripe fruit is crucial for achieving the characteristic sweet flavor required for authentic Korean Banana Milk Ingredients.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Place the sliced banana, cold milk, sweetener (sugar/honey), vanilla extract, and the pinch of salt into the high-speed blender container.
  3. Blend Until Smooth: Secure the lid and blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds until the mixture is completely smooth and homogenous. There should be no visible chunks of banana remaining.
  4. Taste and Adjust: Taste the milk and adjust sweetness if necessary. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add 1-2 extra tablespoons of milk and blend briefly.
  5. Chill for Flavor Development (Recommended): Pour the banana milk into an airtight jar or container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Chilling allows the flavors to meld and fully saturate the milk, resulting in a colder, richer, and more authentic taste.
  6. Serve Cold: Before serving, give the container a quick shake. Pour into chilled glasses, add 1-2 ice cubes if desired, and enjoy immediately.
