Ingredients

  • 2 tsp Loose leaf Kamairicha tea High quality pan-fired leaves
  • 1 cup Filtered water Heated to 176°F/80°C
  • 1 cup Baby spinach Freshly washed and packed
  • 1 cup Frozen mango chunks Provides creaminess and sweetness
  • 0.5 cup Pineapple chunks Fresh or frozen
  • 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk Or any plant-based milk
  • 1 tsp Fresh ginger Peeled and grated
  • 1 tbsp Hemp seeds For healthy fats and texture
  • 1 tsp Honey or Agave nectar Optional, to taste

Notes

For the best flavor, do not over-steep the tea as it may become astringent. You can make the tea base 24 hours in advance and keep it refrigerated. If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more almond milk. Leftovers can be frozen into nutrient-dense ice pops.
