Mango Green Tea Smoothie
Servings: 1
This green tea smoothie uses brewed and cooled green tea in place of milk, with frozen mango, green grapes and green apple balancing its earthy flavor. A cup of spinach blends right in. It is a refreshing afternoon sip in 5 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 cup spinach fresh
- 1 cup green tea unsweetened, brewed and cooled
- ½ cup mango frozen
- ½ cup green grapes
- 1 green apple
Instructions
- Pour the green tea into a blender. Add the spinach and blend until smooth.
- Add the mango, grapes and apple and blend again until smooth, 45 to 60 seconds. Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Notes
- Prep Tip: Brew a big batch of green tea and keep it in the fridge for smoothies all week. Let it cool completely before blending, since warm tea wilts the spinach.
- Matcha Swap: For a stronger tea flavor, whisk 1 teaspoon matcha into 1 cup cold water and use it in place of the brewed tea.
- Milk Swaps: For a creamier smoothie, replace half the tea with almond milk or another non-dairy milk.
- Storing: Best fresh, but it keeps in a sealed jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake before drinking.
