I used this tea today to make a delicious smoothie from Vega. Because of the cold weather, I made mine hot. The consistancy was really thick, so I added an extra cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk. It’s not quite a latte like they claim but it’s a great breakfast smoothie full of greeny goodness.

Here’s the recipe, which you can also find on the MyVega website:
With two preparation options, this matcha avocado smoothie can double as a latte during the colder months. Either blend with ice for a cool green tea treat, or warm the almond milk and enjoy as a green tea latte with a protein, greens, and vitamin boost.

Ingredients
1 cup almond milk
¼ avocado
2 tsp matcha
1 serving Vega One French Vanilla
A few drops of peppermint extract

Preparation
Hot: Warm almond milk. Blend with ingredients until frothy.
Cold: Add ice and blend until smooth.

Flavors: Creamy, Grass, Green, Mocha, Seaweed, Smooth

Ah, avocado in smoothies. I’ve yet to try that. Does the flavour go well with the others, or do you add it more for the healthy fat and fibre content?

I thought the flavours went well together. It is supposed to be very healthy. I have trouble eating avocados because of the high fat content, but my stomach seemed okay with them blended, which is another plus. I have to blend a lot of green veggies because of digestive issues.

Writer, singer & Fluevog lover. DAVIDsTEA aficionado.

Growing up, tea was either black & strong or weak and herbal. It was only in the last five years that I discovered the joys of loose leaf tea and that tea can be incredibly delicious.

I love all kinds of tea, but I am currently on the lookout for the perfect peach iced tea. Diet Snapple Peach Tea is one of my favourite all time beverages and it’s so hard to find! I’d love to be able to brew my own and drink it all day, every day.
