Samurai Smoothie
What's great about it
This is my super healthy smoothie that will have you bouncing off the walls with energy. A revitalising blend of pineapple, lime, coconut and Healthy Chef Organic Ceremonial Grade Matcha. Ceremonial-grade matcha is the champion of green tea and uses young leaves of green tea that have a higher concentration of antioxidants. This means that drinking it is better for your health. Higher quality grades of matcha also have a smoother taste and deliver a more delicious flavour experience.

Add a frozen banana before blending.
Matcha has been shown to increase mental alertness, and the ability to concentrate both during and after your workout. I love to kickstart my workout with a cup of matcha most mornings, and it’s delicious when you shake it with coconut water as a pre workout kick-start to the day.
