Don't waste Giffard Banane du Bresil here. I would instead opt for a more artificial/boozy banana liqueur that could cut through. Used a semi-ripe banana; yes, overripe is preferable. This was a touch too bland and I can't help but think the heavy cream contributed to muted flavors. Lower it to 50 ml and/or use the suggested dairy blend. Between the cream, starchy banana, and sugary liqueur, one would think this would be full-bodied or viscous, but the crushed ice helped keep the textures light.
