Ingredients
  

1 ripe banana, frozen

1 cup coconut milk (can substitute with almond or oat milk)

1 tablespoon fresh turmeric root, grated (or 1 teaspoon ground turmeric)

1 tablespoon fresh ginger root, grated (or 1 teaspoon ground ginger)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder

1/4 teaspoon black pepper (enhances turmeric absorption)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional for added nutrition)

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Ice cubes (optional, for a chilled smoothie)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: If using fresh turmeric and ginger, peel and grate them. Make sure the banana is frozen for a creamy texture.

    Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen banana, coconut milk, grated turmeric, grated ginger, honey (or maple syrup), cinnamon, and black pepper.

      Add Extras: If you’re using chia seeds for added fiber and omega-3 fatty acids, toss them in now. Include the vanilla extract for a touch of sweetness.

        Blend Smoothly: Blend on high until fully incorporated and creamy. If the mixture is too thick for your liking, add more coconut milk or a few ice cubes and blend again until you achieve your desired consistency.

          Taste and Adjust: After blending, taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more honey or maple syrup.

            Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass or bowl. Optionally, you can top it with additional chia seeds, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or chopped nuts for texture.

              Enjoy: Sip your Golden Turmeric Ginger Smoothie slowly and relish the health benefits packed within!
