Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup 120 ml unsweetened soy milk (or almond milk)
  • 1/2 cup 120 ml cold green tea (brewed and cooled)
  • 1/2 frozen banana
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 1/2 cup 75 g frozen spinach or kale
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon hemp seeds optional for extra protein
  • 1 teaspoon matcha green tea powder
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger or 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 scoop unflavored or vanilla plant-based protein powder
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon about 1 tbsp / 15 ml
  • Ice cubes optional, for texture

Method
 

  1. Brew green tea ahead of time: Steep 1 green tea bag in 1/2 cup (120 ml) of hot water. Let it cool completely in the fridge or over ice.
  2. Add base liquids: Pour the soy milk and chilled green tea into your blender.
  3. Add fruits and veggies: Add frozen banana, avocado, and frozen spinach or kale to the blender.
  4. Add boosters: Sprinkle in the chia seeds, matcha powder, hemp seeds (if using), ginger, and protein powder.
  5. Flavor boost: Add vanilla extract and squeeze in the fresh lemon juice.
  6. Blend until smooth: Blend on high for 60–90 seconds, until creamy and smooth. Add ice cubes if a thicker smoothie is desired and blend again.
  7. Taste and serve: Taste for sweetness or sharpness. If desired, you may add a teaspoon of honey or monk fruit sweetener (Mounjaro-friendly), but it's often sweet enough without.
  8. Pour and enjoy: Serve immediately in a chilled glass. Best consumed fresh.

Notes

Why matcha? Matcha adds antioxidants and calm alertness without the crash of coffee.
Great for mornings: This smoothie is energizing, gut-friendly, and balanced with healthy fats and plant protein.
Storage: Best fresh, but can be stored up to 12 hours in the fridge; stir or shake before drinking.
