Method
Freeze the banana
FreezePeel the bananas, break them into chunks and freeze them — overnight, or at least three hours. This is what makes the drink thick and cold without ice watering it down, so it is worth doing the night before rather than skipping.

overnight
Blend everything
BlendPut the frozen banana, milk, oats, peanut butter, Greek yoghurt, honey and cinnamon in a blender and blend for a full minute, until completely smooth and thick. A minute matters — stop early and the oats stay gritty.

Pour and drink
ServePour into two tall glasses and drink straight away, while it's still cold and thick.
Cook's noteFreezing the banana is what makes it thick without ice watering it down. Peel and chunk them when they go spotty and keep a bag in the freezer.
