Cappuccino Banana Smoothie

5.0(5)

I have edited this recipe, after months and months (and months) of making and perfecting smoothie recipes. All through last autumn to this spring. By summer, they'll be perfect. I hope you like this low calorie shake, it's gone through alot of testing! By the way, I only use half a banana to cut down on a few calories, but if you want the whole banana, go right ahead!
