Ingredients

  • 2 Bananas chopped and frozen
  • 1/2 cup strong Chai Tea I used 1 teabags for 1/2 cup of water, chilled
  • 1 Fuyu Persimmon roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Maple Syrup

Instructions

  • Combine all the ingredients in the blender.
  • Blend until smooth.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

If you have frozen bananas and chilled chai tea ready to go then your prep time will only be 10 minutes.
To keep this AIP compliant, make sure you're using Chai tea that doesn't include any ingredients like cardamom, fennel, black pepper, star anise, or coriander seeds. These are all AIP reintroductions.
Star anise is shown in the photo as a garnish however, it's not AIP compliant.
