1 cup (medium) of Banana Milk Smoothie (250 g) has 175 calories. That works out to 70 calories per 100 g. It contains 33 g of carbs, 5.8 g of protein, 3 g of fat and 2 g of fiber. Its 0.3 mg of B2 covers 25% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 45 (medium), so it raises blood sugar at a moderate pace.
A banana milk smoothie is a blended drink made with banana and milk; some versions include yoghurt or honey. It has a mellow sweetness, a creamy, thick texture and often a little froth, making it more substantial than plain banana milk.
It is commonly served chilled for breakfast or as a snack, and can be made at home in minutes. The banana contributes most of the carbohydrates, while milk adds some protein. For a less sweet version, blend in a ripe banana without honey; a pinch of cinnamon works well, too. Add a little extra milk if you prefer a thinner drink.

High
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

Blend a ripe banana with milk until the Banana Milk Smoothie is smooth. Use a frozen banana for a thicker, colder drink, and add the milk gradually so you can control the consistency.
A Banana Milk Smoothie can be a nourishing drink because it combines fruit with milk, which provides protein and calcium. Its nutritional value changes if you add ingredients such as honey, sweetened yogurt, or ice cream.
A Banana Milk Smoothie can fit into a weight-loss eating plan, but it does not cause weight loss by itself. Drinking it instead of a more filling meal may leave you hungry sooner, while sweet additions increase its energy content.
A Banana Milk Smoothie is best freshly blended, but it can be refrigerated in a sealed container for up to a day. The banana may brown and the drink may separate, so shake or blend it again before drinking.
Yes, you can freeze a Banana Milk Smoothie, though the texture may change after thawing. For a smoother result, freeze peeled banana pieces separately and blend them with fresh milk when you are ready to make the drink.
Yes, you can make a Banana Milk Smoothie with an unsweetened plant-based drink instead of dairy milk. The flavor and thickness will vary by product; oat and soy drinks usually blend smoothly with banana.
No, you usually do not need to add sugar to a Banana Milk Smoothie. A ripe banana adds sweetness on its own, so blend the drink first and taste it before adding honey or another sweetener.
A Banana Milk Smoothie can work as a pre-workout drink because it provides carbohydrates from the banana. Have it early enough to feel comfortable during exercise, especially if a thick drink feels heavy in your stomach.
A Banana Milk Smoothie can turn brown because cut banana reacts with oxygen. The color change is normal; blending it shortly before serving and adding a little lemon juice can slow browning, though lemon changes the flavor.
Babies should not be given a Banana Milk Smoothie as a substitute for breast milk or infant formula. Once a baby is ready for complementary foods, offer age-appropriate banana and milk separately in a safe texture, following local feeding guidance.
