  • 1 cup non-dairy milk

  • ½ frozen banana
  • 2-4 ice cubes
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1½ teaspoon Unflavored Natural Calm
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • pinch ground nutmeg
  • pinch ground all spice
  • pinch ground cloves
Topping
  • 2 tablespoons coconut cream
  • ground cinnamon
Instructions
  1. Add all ingredients to your high-powdered blender and blend until smooth, about 1 minute.
  2. Pour into a glass and top with coconut cream, a dash of ground cinnamon and serve!
Notes
Maple Syrup - feel free to replace with whatever sugar you have on hand. Alternatively, 2 medjool dates could be used.

Coconut Cream - is full-fat coconut milk, chilled overnight with the thick "cream" removed from the can.

Natural Calm - if you don't have it on hand, feel free to use 2 scoops of vanilla protein powder or omit completely.
