I made this for my daughter to go with her lunch, she really enjoyed it, tastes just like a banana eggnog!

    Good, but next time I think that I will use a bit more cinnamon and brown sugar, as it was a little plain for me. But it was still very good and I enjoyed it!

    This has a very light banana taste. The spices are wonderful together. I did add a whole banana (just so it wouldn't be wasted) which made for more than half a cup of bananas. Thank you Amy... I Miss You Girl!

    We really enjoyed this one, too! Might add a bit more nutmeg and a bit more sugar next time, as well. Not a heavy drink at all.

    I was in the mood for a new drink on a Saturday night and figured we'd give this a shot. My wife and I, as well as all our kids, loved it.

    This is the first time I have had a drink like this. It was different but tasted pretty good. Thanks Redneck Epicurean for a new type of drink. Bullwinkle.

    This is wonderful! I drink a lot of smoothie-type drinks, but this wasn't as filling as those can tend to be. A great afternoon pick-me-up!

    I've had a craving for licuados recently...I'm not sure why blended milk and banana result in the sum being greater than the parts, but there it is! I would cut down the sugar just a bit, sometimes use honey instead, and cut the ice if I don't have any handy. Thanks for the recipe!

    What a combination of flavours! Bananas are not what I would usually chose to add to a drink but I think the mixture of cinnamon,cloves and nutmeg make a 5 star drink. I am so anxious to make this for my grandchildren when they come to visit.

    This had a really nice, light flavor to it. I used two cups of unsweetened almond milk instead of regular milk to make it vegan and instead of using 1/4 cup of ice cubes and 1/2 cup banana, i just used an entire medium sized frozen banana, which enhanced the banana flavor and chilled the drink.
