Puree is the best you can hope for and that is essentially what all the commercially available banana "juices" that I have seen are. If you have a large liquor store somewhere near you, look for Finest Call banana puree. That is the closest to commercially available banana juice that you are going to find. High end grocery stores may also have Looza Banana Nectar. Looza is a Belgian brand that I get here in some grocery stores (Bristol Farms, Whole Foods, Pavilions, Gelsons, How's). If you have a similar type of store in Michigan you might find the Looza there and it is a little better than the Finest Call. Otherwise, put some overripe bananas in a blender with some water and a little lemon juice (to retard oxidation) and puree your own. But you can't juice a banana.
