Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 tsp Ichibancha Matcha Powder Ceremonial grade preferred
- 1 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk Chilled
- 1 medium Ripe Pear Cored and sliced
- 0.5 medium Avocado Pitted and peeled
- 1 cup Baby Spinach Fresh
- 1 tbsp Raw Honey Optional for added sweetness
- 0.5 tsp Fresh Ginger Grated
- 1 cup Ice Cubes
Notes
For the best flavor, use Ichibancha (Shincha) harvested in spring. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add an extra 1/4 cup of almond milk. This smoothie is best consumed immediately but can be stored in an airtight thermos for up to 4 hours. You can substitute the pear with a frozen banana for a creamier, sweeter profile.
