- 1/2 cup milk (or your preferred milk alternative)
Fruit & Sweetener
- 1 large ripe banana
- 1 tbsp honey
Optional
- Ice cubes (for a colder smoothie)

Instructions
- Brew the Tea: Brew 1/2 cup of chamomile tea by steeping chamomile flowers or a chamomile tea bag in hot water. Allow the tea to cool to room temperature to avoid melting the ice or warming the smoothie mixture.

- Use a ripe banana for natural sweetness and creamy texture.
- Substitute milk with almond, oat, soy, or any preferred milk alternative to suit dietary needs.
- Adjust honey quantity according to your desired sweetness level or omit for a less sweet smoothie.
- Adding ice cubes is optional but recommended for a chilled smoothie experience.
- This smoothie is best consumed fresh to retain its flavor and texture.
