Pro-D Matcha Latte Smoothie

Do you Matcha?

Matcha is made from the powdered leaf of 𝘤𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘢 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴, which is the same plant that all black, green and white teas come from☕🍵

As you drink the whole leaf, instead of just the leaf infusion, it does have a few extra nutrients compared with regular tea or green tea🌟

It has some vitamin A, in the form of the alpha-carotene, and has decent amounts of vitamin C, iron, potassium and B1. It’s got huge amounts of vitamin K (about 232mcg per cup), something to be aware of if you take blood thinning medication.

Matcha does have caffeine, less than in coffee, but more than in a regular green tea, but you also get the calming effects of the amino acid theanine, so it should give you a nice lift but without the jitters.

For this recipe we wanted to jazz up our daily Pro-d dose by turning it into an invigorating and healthy smoothie.
