Superpower Your Smoothie With Matcha Green Tea

A great way to add a little kick in the pants to your daily green smoothie is to add some matcha to it. Matcha is powdered green tea leaves, traditionally stirred in to hot water to create a tea.

So why not add a little to your morning smoothie? You’re already packing in essential daily vitamins and minerals when you use greens in your smoothie. Add a little extra green tea powder and you’ll get a whole bunch of extra added benefits!

Your body will get to work after eating these foods, breaking down more while leaving you feeling like you actually ate something.

They’re packed with nutritionally dense goodness, from the healthy fats to vitamins and minerals to antioxidants. But drinking smoothies from a straw can get – well, boring. Sometimes I just miss chewing! Smoothie bowls are a great way to switch up your breakfast. Just pour it into a bowl, top with your favorite ingredients, and eat it up with a spoon!
