Ingredients
ΒΌ cup Greek yogurt or yogurt of choice
ΒΌ cup canned coconut cream
Β½ cup almond milk
Β½ banana
1 scoop protein powder or collagen
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp matcha powder
1 handful spinach
Sweetener to taste
Instructions
First Step: Whip the Coconut Cream Start by chilling canned coconut cream thoroughly. Using a blender or handheld frother, whip the chilled coconut cream until light and airy with a fluffy, cloud-like texture. Set aside this luscious topping for later assembly.
Second Step: Create Cloud Swirls (Optional) In your serving glass, use the back of a spoon to make cloud-like swirls or stamps inside with Greek yogurt or your chosen yogurt. This technique creates a beautiful visual presentation and adds texture contrast.
Third Step: Blend the Smoothie Base Combine almond milk, frozen banana, protein powder or collagen (if using), vanilla extract, matcha powder, spinach (if desired), and sweetener in a blender. Blend at high speed until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust sweetness or matcha intensity to your liking.
Fourth Step: Layer the Coconut Matcha Dream Pour a layer of whipped coconut cream at the bottom of the glass. Next, gently add the creamy matcha smoothie mixture on top, filling the glass almost to the rim. This layering adds depth and richness.
Final Step: Garnish and Serve Top with a drizzle of whipped coconut cream. Serve immediately with a glass straw or decorative spoon for an elegant touch. Optionally, sprinkle additional matcha powder or toasted coconut flakes for extra flair.
