Dirty Banana Cocktail

If you’ve never had a Dirty Banana, you are in for a special treat. Traditionally, this cocktail is made with rum, Kahlua, cream, and a banana all blended into a frozen cocktail. Substituting the peanut butter whiskey for the rum adds a fantastic sweetness to this cocktail. Besides, peanut butter plus banana equals yum!

While you can use a fresh or frozen banana for this recipe, definitely make sure the banana is plenty ripe for maximum flavor. I prefer a frozen banana as it creates a creamier texture.

Warning: This adult milkshake is definitely addicting. Try at your own risk!

FAQS:

Can I make a kid friendly version?Absolutely. Simply blend crushed ice, a banana, coconut cream, a drizzle of chocolate, and a few tablespoons of peanut butter (or peanut powder) together until smooth. You have a delicious zero proof milkshake.

INGREDIENTS FOR RECIPE:

• Banana: Using a ripe, frozen banana makes the cocktail extra creamy and flavorful. Banana liqueur can also be added for extra banana flavor.
• Coconut cream: Coconut cream adds more tropical flavor than using half and half.
• Peanut butter whiskey (I like Skrewball): Rum is traditionally used, but the peanut butter whiskey is absolutely delicious in this banana cocktail.
• Kahlua: Any coffee flavored liqueur is work.
• Crushed ice: Try using a scoop of vanilla ice cream in place of some of the ice for an ultra decadent cocktail.

HOW TO PREPARE A DIRTY BANANA COCKTAIL:

• Measure the peanut butter whiskey, Kahlua, and coconut cream into a blender. Add the banana and crushed ice.
• Blend until smooth and creamy, about a minute.
• Pour the mixture into a chocolate drizzled glass.
• Garnish with a cherry and banana slice (optional).

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

• Freeze the Dirty Banana Cocktail for a decadent dessert.
• For extra banana flavor, add a half ounce of banana liqueur.
• Top with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles for an extra pretty and delicious presentation.
