This Dirty Banana recipe adds a delicious twist by substituting peanut butter whiskey for the rum. It’s a creamy, frozen treat that brings the tropics to your backyard.
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:
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 a Dirty Banana:
- 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.
