FAQs

  1. Can I make banana milkshake without nuts?
     Yes! Simply skip cashews and almonds. It will still be creamy with bananas alone.

     It’s best enjoyed fresh, but you can refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking.
  3. Can I replace honey with sugar?
     Yes, but honey (or maple syrup) gives a more natural sweetness and blends better.
  4. Is banana milkshake vegan?
     Yes—if you use almond milk and maple syrup instead of dairy milk and honey.
