I used to work for a commercial gym, and we had a juice bar … although we used some special ingredients to make my favorite smoothie in the WORLD, and I think everyone that went to the gym agreed, I have learn to substitute other things to make it.

It’s a banana, peanut butter twist smoothie.

Smoothie Ingredients:

• 8oz Milk (could be any kind even soy)
• 1/2 banana
• 2 Big tablespoons of peanut butter (pref. not chunky)
• 1 1/2 tablespoons of vanilla extract (this is the ingredient that I substituted, which can be hard to perfect)
• and then about a cup of ice

Then…umm, so good, you should really try it.
