How to Make the Green Matcha Smoothie

Let’s get the ingredients ready to make the smoothie.

• Add 1 ripe banana to a blender jug.
• To that add 1 ripe kiwi.
• Then add 1/2 cup of fresh spinach. I use baby spinach.
• Add 10 blanched whole almonds. You can use whole raw almonds too.
• 1 tablespoon of good-quality matcha powder.
• 1 tablespoon of pure maple syrup.
• And finally, add 1/2 cup of milk of choice.

Ready, Set, Blend

Now that we have it all ready, let’s get blending.

• Cover the jug and blend for 2 minutes.
• Continue to blend until you have a smooth consistency.
• If needed, open and use a spatula to scrape the sides.

Serving the Green Matcha Smoothie

Once the smoothie is ready, taste and enjoy.

• I frequently like to serve my smoothie on a bit of ice.
• This allows for the smoothie to get a little colder.

Substitution Options

Here are some of my suggestions for substitutions:

• Want a more tropical flavour? I particularly like that, and I do that by adding 2 tablespoons of coconut milk to the mix.
• Add 1/4 cup of Cauliflower florets to in effect making it even healthier.
• Turn it into a protein smoothie. Add 1 scoop of protein powder of choice.
• Use greens of choice. Although my recipe uses spinach, you can always replace that with Kale, Beet Greens, or even Microgreens.
