Recipe for a banana milk & honey drink?!
The drink's consistency was thin, not like a milkshake or anything, and I know what's in there (banana milk & honey) but I don't know how much of any of it! Any guesses (or former employees?)?
Answers: There was this rad restaurant by my house in Dinkytown (in Minneapolis, MN) where they sold awesome gyros & a T*A*S*T*Y banana milk & honey drink. I forget what the restaurant was called, but does anyone know the recipe, or can you guess?

2 small ripe banana peeled
2 cups milk
2 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp vanilla
Place bananas, milk, honey and vanilla in a blender. Cover. Blend until smooth and frothy. Serve immediately.
Whenever I made drinks like that, I would use about one to one and a half bananas, a cup of milks, and a big squeeze of honey (you can eyeball it and add more if it's not enough for you. But it should be about a tablespoon.)
They always turn out good with those proportions. And if you want it to be just a TINY bit thicker, and nice and cold and frothy, I'd ad about half a cup to a cup or crushed ice.
