No reviews

A vegan smoothie blending frozen banana, matcha powder, and plant-based milk for a creamy, antioxidant-rich drink. Cold-brewed matcha and frozen banana chunks create ice cream-like texture without added sweeteners.

Ingredients

Frozen banana, 1 large (sliced and frozen flat)
Matcha powder, 1 tsp (ceremonial grade preferred)
Plant-based milk, 1 cup (almond or oat recommended)
Sea salt, 1/8 tsp
Spinach (optional)
Plant-based yogurt (optional)
Ice chips (optional)

Instructions

Peel and slice a large banana, freeze flat until solid
Measure matcha powder and cold plant-based milk
Add milk and matcha to blender; blend 10-15 seconds to dissolve
Add 4-6 chunks of frozen banana and sea salt
Blend 20 seconds total for creamy texture

Notes

Use cold-brewed matcha (steep 2 tsp in 1/4 cup water for 2 hours) for smoother flavor
Add 1/4 cup ice chips if using unfrozen bananas
Balance flavor with spinach or probiotic yogurt
Avoid boiling water with matcha to prevent bitterness
Greentea extract can substitute matcha (milder flavor)
