Summer is the time for iced tea & big smoothies. My perfect afternoon would be spent sitting outside, with a cup of iced green tea and a loaded smoothie bowl, enjoying the sunset & reading a good book.
This recipe combines two summer-y indulgences into a delicious, healthy, and refreshing summer bowl.
Let’s make a coconut matcha smoothie bowl!
A couple years ago I tried an iced coconut matcha latte for the first time and was immediately in love with the vibrant, antioxidant-rich powder that flavored my drink. If you haven’t had matcha, prepare to be amazed.
Pair the matcha with rich cashew milk and naturally sweetened coconut water and you have a completely pant-based start to your smoothie bowl.
Throw in banana (for extra sweetness), cauliflower (for extra thickness) and white sweet potato (for extra creamy-ness). This coconut matcha smoothie is incredible and it might just change your smoothie bowl game.
With only 7 ingredients, 5 minutes, and a blender you can have this bowl ready to enjoy in no time!
