Notes

Use a very ripe banana with brown spots for the best natural sweetness and authentic banana bread flavor. You can make this latte iced by blending the banana with cold milk and pouring over ice with cold brew coffee. Store any leftover banana milk mixture in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat gently before serving.
