Let’s cap off the matcha series with a green tea smoothie recipe. Culinary matcha or Art of Tea’s Grade A Matcha is most frequently used as an organic base flavoring for smoothies and lattes. Enjoy the nice, long weekend with this healthy iced blended matcha treat! This recipe yields 2 servings.
Matcha Green Tea Smoothie
You Will Need:
-1 tsp Art of Tea’s Grade A Matcha
-1/3 cup Milk or milk alternative (I used coconut milk.)
-1 cup Ice cubes
-1/2 Banana, sliced
-3/4 cup Blueberries
-3 pinches Cinnamon, grounded
-1 tsp Agave or honey
-Blender
–Tibetan Goji Berries (optional)
Instructions:
First, pour the ice into the blender. Then, add the milk followed by the banana slices and blueberries. Carefully sprinkle Art of Tea’s Grade A Matcha and pinches of cinnamon. Squeeze about a teaspoon of agave or honey. Start blending until the contents fully mix together to create a frothy consistency. Empty into serving glasses. Use Art of Tea’s Tibetan Goji Berries as a finishing touch. These organic certified berries act as a natural sweetener and provide cherry and plum-like flavor notes. Cheers!
