Deliciously Unique Ghostly Vanilla Bean Smoothie

What makes this smoothie truly stand out? It’s all about the balance between naturally sweet bananas, real vanilla bean flavor, and creamy yogurt—blended into a ghoulishly white, thick treat. Dark chocolate chip or blueberry “eyes” give each glass a ghostly character, so it’s not just delicious, but also irresistibly cute for kids and party guests of all ages.

Preparing a Spooktacular Smoothie Base

The magic starts with ripe frozen bananas, real vanilla bean (or high quality vanilla extract), and Greek yogurt for richness. For that haunting white color, a splash of milk or plant-based alternative creates a smooth blend with perfect consistency. If you want extra nutrition, toss in a handful of cauliflower florets—your little ones will never notice the hidden veg!

Assembling Your Ghostly Vanilla Bean Smoothie

Blend your ingredients until creamy and smooth, then pour into clear glasses. Stick chocolate chips or blueberries along the sides to make spooky eyes and a ghostly mouth, and top with whipped cream “clouds” for even more fun. Serve with striped straws or Halloween picks for a ghoulishly good presentation!

Serving Suggestions for a Crowd-Pleasing Ghostly Smoothie
