Yes, overripe bananas work well and add more pronounced banana flavor and natural sweetness, reducing the need for extra sugar.
Light (white) rum is traditional as it lets the banana and lime flavors shine without competing oak or spice notes.
Yes, you can omit it for a simpler drink, or substitute with another orange liqueur like Cointreau or skip altogether and add an extra 1/2 oz lime juice.
Use plenty of crushed ice, blend until fully smooth, and serve immediately. If it sits, the banana will naturally separate slightly—just stir before serving.
Yes, this recipe contains no dairy, though some variations add coconut cream or condensed milk—check your specific recipe.
