    Personally, I found 1 banana wasn’t quite enough, so I increased it to 2 and it turned out really delicious! Adding 1 gum syrup makes it taste amazing! About 8 ice cubes is roughly 80 g. The photo shows this amount for one serving!

    The bananas had turned black, so I made them into juice. It was a big hit with the kids♪

    It was easy to make and tasted great♪ Even little kids could enjoy drinking it, so I’d like to make it again!

    Using the BRUNO multi-stick blender a friend gave me 🎀 I added 1 teaspoon each of cocoa powder and sugar for a little extra sweetness ·͜·♡

    When I make it with banana, milk, and ice, it tastes great with a little honey added for sweetness. This time, though, I got a request to add chocolate, so I tried adding one Meiji chocolate bar I had at home. I also added a little oligosaccharide syrup. The chocolate's sweetness and texture made it delicious. It's really easy to make, yet so tasty. I'd like to keep trying it with different additions from now on.

    It was very easy to make. The bananas were still a bit underripe, so I added some honey by eye. As expected, it tastes better if you use fully ripe bananas.

    I bought a new blender, so I made my first juice with it! I went with the nostalgic classic—banana juice ❤️ It was absolutely delicious. I also keep a few canned fruits on hand, so next I’d like to make something like mixed juice too.

    I used one packet of gum syrup based on the reviews, and it turned out really delicious 😋

    Made with fat-free milk. Since it’s winter, I skipped the ice. A fully ripe banana made it plenty sweet and delicious 🤤

    It was delicious and nicely chilled when I used frozen bananas.
