    This is not a traditional recipe for banana milk, as it usually uses milk, but this is a simple, easy but delicious recipe using almond milk, inspired by Korean style banana milk.

    This recipe is also vegan since we substituted milk with almond milk and so you can enjoy this drink if you are on a vegan diet too!

    What is banana milk? How is it different from banana milkshake or smoothie?

    banana almond milk drink

    Banana milk is popular Korean street drink which is delicious and easy to make using ripe bananas, milk and sugar.

    It is different from banana milkshake because it is different in texture.

    I noticed that banana milk is more runny in texture while banana milkshake is more creamy and thick. Also, most banana milkshakes use ice cream as one of the main ingredients, which is not usually used in banana milk.

    So while both drinks have some similarities in terms of ingredients used and also taste, they are not exactly the same.

    Though banana milk can be quite similar to banana milkshake in preparation and taste, it is more different from a banana smoothie.

    Banana smoothie is more thick and frosty while banana milk is more thin in texture.

    If you want more of a smoothie like texture, you may use frozen sliced bananas and also you may reduce the amount of liquids in the preparation, to make it taste more like a smoothie.

    To make Korean style banana milk, you shouldn't reduce the amount of almond milk (or milk) or water we use in this recipe!

    Substitutes For Almond Milk:

    In this recipe, we use almond milk which makes it a plant based drink.

    If you do not have almond milk, you can use regular whole milk or skim milk to replace almond milk, if you don't want to keep it vegan.

    In fact, in traditional Korean or Japanese banana milk, cow's milk is used in the preparation.

    If you want to keep this vegan and want to subtitute almond milk, you may use coconut milk (if you like the flavor of coconut milk) or you may use oat milk, cashew milk etc which are all great plant based alternatives and substitutes for almond milk.
