How to make Banana Kiwi Smoothie?

To prepare the breakfast smoothie healthy, first, I have cut and peeled the kiwi fruits and transferred them to the jar of the blender. Then I have added the ripe bananas into the jar.

In this Banana Kiwi Smoothie, I have skipped sugar to make the smoothie healthier. I have used honey instead of sugar as the sweetener for the drink.

I don’t like any fruit milkshakes to be runny in consistency. But that does not mean I like too dense milkshakes too. To achieve that moderate consistency, I have used 1 cup or 250 ml milk for one banana and two kiwi fruits.

Ingredients:

• 4 ready to eat Kiwi fruits, Peeled
• 2 Bananas, ripe
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 2 cups of full cream Milk, chilled
• 1 Kiwi fruit, for garnishing

1. Cut the Kiwis into halves and scoop out the flesh from the skin with the help of a spoon.
   
   

2. Transfer the Kiwi fruits into a jar of mixer or blender.
   

3. Peel the Bananas and break them into two pieces. Transfer the Bananas into the same jar.
   

4. Add 2 tablespoons of Honey into the jar.
   

5. Add Milk and close the lid of the jar. Run the blender for a minute until they turn into a smooth velvety smoothie.
