2.) Peel ripe bananas and break them apart into your smoothie, and add in the rest of the ingredients.
3.) Blend until a creamy and smooth consistency. Feel free to add more of less water, depending on how thin or thick you like your smoothies.

When your bananas are ripe, you don't need to add any or much sweeteners!
