Ingredients

1 cup brewed chamomile tea, cooled
1 large ripe banana, peeled and broken into chunks
1 tbsp honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
Ice cubes (optional, for colder texture)
Dried chamomile leaves (optional garnish)

Instructions

1. Brew the Chamomile Tea

Steep 1 chamomile tea bag (or 1 tbsp loose flowers) in hot water for 5 minutes. Let it cool completely before using.

2. Prep the Ingredients

Peel the banana and break into chunks. Measure out the honey and your milk of choice.

3. Blend

Add the cooled chamomile tea, banana, honey, and milk into a blender. If you’d like a colder smoothie, toss in a few ice cubes.

4. Blend Until Smooth

Blend on high until creamy and smooth. If the smoothie is too thick, add more milk to thin it to your liking.

5. Serve & Garnish

Pour into a glass or jar. Optionally, sprinkle dried chamomile flowers on top for a beautiful floral touch.

Variations & Substitutions

Sweetener Swap: Use maple syrup, agave, or skip sweeteners altogether if your banana is very ripe.
Creamier Texture: Use canned coconut milk for a rich, tropical flavor.
Citrus Lift: Add a splash of lemon juice for brightness.
Oatmeal Smoothie: Add 2 tablespoons of rolled oats to make it more filling.
Dessert Vibe: Toss in a scoop of vanilla yogurt or protein powder.

Storage & Heating

Storage: Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store it in the fridge for up to 24 hours in a sealed jar. Shake well before drinking.
To serve warm: Gently heat the smoothie in a saucepan (do not boil), then blend again for a warm latte-like drink.
