Ingredients
  

1 ripe banana, frozen

1 cup coconut milk (or almond milk for a nutty flavor)

1 teaspoon ground turmeric

1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger (or substitute with 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger for convenience)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust based on your sweetness preference)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, adds extra nutrition)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for a hint of sweetness)

A pinch of black pepper (to enhance turmeric absorption)

Ice cubes (optional, for a refreshing chill)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: If your banana isn’t frozen yet, start by peeling it and slicing it into small chunks. Place the pieces in a zip-top bag or container and freeze for at least 1-2 hours until solid.

    Blend the Smoothie: In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen banana chunks with the coconut milk, ground turmeric, freshly grated ginger (or ground ginger), honey (or maple syrup), chia seeds (if you choose to include them), vanilla extract, and a pinch of black pepper.

      Add Ice: If you enjoy a colder smoothie, toss in a few ice cubes to the blender for an extra refreshing touch.

        Blend Until Smooth: Thoroughly secure the lid of your blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is creamy and well combined. If the smoothie appears too thick for your liking, gradually add a little more coconut milk until you achieve your preferred consistency.

          Taste and Adjust: Before serving, taste your smoothie and decide if you’d like to enhance the sweetness. If so, blend in more honey or syrup to suit your preference.

            Serve and Enjoy: Pour the vibrant smoothie into glasses. For an extra decorative touch, sprinkle a little ground turmeric or chia seeds on top before serving. Enjoy your nutritious and revitalizing Golden Turmeric Ginger Smoothie!
