Green Tea Blueberry Smoothie
Vandedi
- 1 & 1/2 cups strong, chilled green tea (made with 6 standard tea bags)
- 2 cups frozen blueberries
- 1 frozen banana, sliced into 1″ chunks
- 3 tablespoons honey
Yield: Makes 3 (1-cup) servings.
For the tea, I recommend Celestial Seasons Blueberry Green Tea, which gives this smoothie an extra blueberry punch, but any good green tea works. Chilled Pomegranate Green Tea also works well and adds a nice dimension to the flavor. I suggest keeping a few frozen bananas on hand as well—they will make this enticing drink even more frosty and delicious! Also, I try to buy (and freeze) overripe bananas when available since they’re less expensive to purchase and are perfect for lots of different recipes: just peel, put the bananas in a zippered, freezer-safe bag, freeze and take them out as needed. Smoothies can be persnickety, but this is the finest smoothie I have ever made or tasted!
