Almond and Banana Smoothie

There aren't many drink-recipes on my blog. And that's because we don't drink anything except milk. Smoothies, juices, soups etc are a rarity at home. And so, I made this simple smoothie for the blog! :) But we loved it. Its an extremely energizing drink. Excellent post workout drink
