Coconut Vanilla Matcha Smoothie

By 14 Comments

This Coconut Vanilla Matcha Smoothie is a light, refreshing way to get your daily dose of zenergy and antioxidants! Matcha pairs beautifully with coconut, banana, and pineapple.

I have a small confession to make: I’ve never been a fan of coconut! But I really want to be, so I keep trying 🙂 I’ve heard that matcha & coconut is a lovely combination, and given my deep love of matcha, I knew I had to give it a try.

The verdict? I can honestly say it was the first time I ever enjoyed coconut! Turns out all it needed was a little matcha magic. I usually think coconut overpowers everything but it doesn’t here at all. It’s such a light, refreshing smoothie with a wonderful balance of flavors. Another great way to change up my daily matcha routine!

  2. It's over 100 degrees here today so this smoothie is pretty much all I want right now! It looks so creamy and refreshing. And of course, not too coconutty. 😉
