Expert Tip

Sweetener -Because of the slightly bitter taste of matcha, you may want to add up to 1 teaspoon of sweetener of choice, depending on your taste buds. I like using maple syrup.

Matcha powder- Use a high quality powder that's bright green in colour for superior taste and nutrients. I suggest buying from a local tea store.

Use frozen bananas and kale- Not only will this give your smoothie a creamy texture, but it will save time if your banana and kale are pre-chopped.
