Creamy Matcha Smoothie

This Creamy Matcha Smoothie is delicious, refreshing and so nourishing!

Are you a matcha lover or a hater? I was a hater, then I discovered I was buying poor-quality matcha. And once I tried a good matcha powder, everything changed! Matcha taste should be mild, balanced, earthy and a bit sweet, it shouldn’t taste strong and unpleasant like a glass of muddy grass. So before you give up on matcha, try buying a different brand. It might be pricier, but it’s so worth it. Matcha is not only delicious, it has so many health benefits. It’s packed with antioxidants and can help support your metabolism, your heart and your brain.

And if you are still not feeling the love, this smoothie might change your mind. It’s SUPER CREAMY, FILLING AND A LITTLE SWEET. It’s pure heaven and it’s very nourishing at the same time. It has fruits, dark leafy greens, full-of-fiber oats and healthy fats. It’s incredibly satisfying and the most perfect way to start your day!

Creamy Matcha Smoothie

Creamy, satisfying and super nourishing matcha smoothie. A delicious and refreshing drink that also happens to be sugar-free; it’s the perfect way to start your day!
Prep Time 5 minutes
Servings 1

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 medium/big frozen banana, sliced*
  • 1 big handful of spinach**
  • 2 Tbsp oats
  • 1 Tbsp cashew butter - can sub tahini
  • 1 - 2 tsp premium matcha powder
  • 1 tsp coconut nectar or maple syrup, optional
  • ½ tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

* Frozen bananas make creamy, delicious smoothies. Bananas need to be frozen for at least 8 hours. I like to keep a stash of frozen bananas in my freezer so I can make smoothies any time I want (all the time, actually). Peel them, cut them in half, and store them in an airtight container. The riper the bananas, the tastier and sweeter the smoothie. Green bananas = bland smoothies.
** Spinach doesn't change the taste, it just makes it greener and more nourishing.
