Tips for Better Matcha Smoothies
* Always whisk matcha with hot water into a paste before blending. This prevents clumping.
* Use frozen fruit instead of fresh for a colder, thicker consistency without extra ice.
* Add matcha last when tasting and adjusting, as matcha flavour intensifies slightly after blending.
* For a protein boost, add a tablespoon of almond butter or peanut butter to any of these recipes.
