Instructions

Prepare the Cashew Milk

Soak 1/2 cup of raw cashews in 1 cup of water overnight.
Drain the soaked cashews and add them to a blender with 1 1/2 cups of lukewarm water. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.

Make the Smoothie

Add the ripe banana, pitted dates, jaggery (if using), and honey (if using) to the blender.
Blend until a smooth paste forms.
Pour the cashew milk into the blender and blend again until thoroughly combined and smooth.

Serve and Enjoy

Pour the smoothie into a glass. Garnish with chia seeds, if desired.
Serve immediately or chill for 2-3 hours for a colder smoothie.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips

For a thicker smoothie, use less cashew milk or add a frozen banana.
Adjust the sweetness to your preference by adding more or less dates, jaggery, or honey.
Experiment with other flavors! Add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla extract for extra warmth and flavor.
To make this smoothie ahead of time, prepare the cashew milk and store it separately in the refrigerator. Assemble the smoothie just before serving.
