About the Recipe
Bananas, peaches and honey bring a non-sugar added burst of natural sweetness, and a scoop of creatine monohydrate and glutamine promote better recovery after a strenuous workout.
Enjoy as a great post-workout recovery smoothie or as a healthy breakfast drink.
The banana in this smoothie will help boost muscle growth, you could split it between 2 people, or make double the amount for 2 people. The freedom of choice is yours.

Prepare your blender and add a few ice cubes if you want a colder smoothie.
