Don’t be confused: This is not a child’s milkshake. This is a, ‘Dang, I am a grown-up and I know it’.
My friend Emily made this up and served it to me about 8 weeks ago to ‘help my throat’. I kept thinking of this drink for weeks and made my version last week for my friend ‘Sandra Lee‘.
But wait, it gets better: I froze some and ‘ate it’ before bed to soothe my throat.

Bananas Foster Milkshake (Yield = per person)
Ingredients:
1/2 cup 1% milk
1 banana
3 heaping tablespoons vanilla ice cream (or frozen yogurt)
A few dashes of cinnamon
A few splashes of rum
1 teaspoon caramel (I used Mrs. Robinson’s)
Directions:
Place all ingredients into a blender except the caramel and pulse the ice crush feature a few times. Then use the blend or puree function and allow the caramel to drizzle into the blender from the lid. You can also just add the caramel with the other ingredients but you may need to scrap it off the sides a few times and pulse again.
Oops, forgot the cherry on top….
Warning: drink more than one and things may start to get a bit blurry…..

That looks tasty! I don’t know about drinking it while sick though…
Luckily I’m not sick!
It is soooo good Amanda. I am not sick, I have a vocal cord injury and constantly want cold drinks….aghh…..
Yum! What a great drink! Going to try it this weekend!!! I can’t wait!!
Funny story is I used to work at a hotel in CO with a huge brunch and I’d make almost a thousand servings of bananas foster every Sunday. A live station, constantly making deliciously warm bananas. Now I am craving some as well, drink form please!
Oh man, this sounds fabulous!
This looks good forit is in 90′s and need a great drink to take the chill off. Thanks
Im drooling here! I’ve been craving a mudslide for days this sounds sooo much better! And I can make it without the rum so I feel like less of a lush (because I couldn’t drink just one!)
