Many coffee drinks leave you feeling jittery because of the heavy syrups and fake sugars.

However, this recipe keeps things clean and natural, giving you a steady, calm energy. Meanwhile, the fresh berries add vitamins and natural sweetness.

What You’ll Need

1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries
1 teaspoon high-quality matcha powder
1 cup milk (oat, almond, or dairy)
½ cup ice cubes
1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

Start by pouring the milk into your blender to make a smooth liquid foundation. Next, the other ingredients will blend evenly.

Add one teaspoon of matcha directly to the milk. Use a small sieve if you can, since it breaks the dry clumps instantly.

Drop your strawberries into the blender next. I prefer fresh berries, but the frozen ones also work.

Add the ice cubes and pour in your honey if you want extra sweetness. You can use Maple syrup and blend until smooth. (About 30 seconds)

Finally, pour it straight into a tall glass and drink it right away. It always tastes best when completely fresh.

How to Store Your Smoothie

You can keep leftovers, but only briefly. Smoothies always taste best when fresh. Just pour it into an airtight glass jar. It will last up to twenty-four hours in the fridge.

The layers might separate slightly overnight. Therefore, just give it a vigorous shake before sipping.

Other Great Mixes

Ready to change things up? Here are three easy ideas to modify your favorite smoothie. Each takes the same quick time to make and adds new flavors.

Blueberry Matcha
Replace strawberries with fresh or frozen blueberries. This gives you a richer, slightly sweeter taste and a beautiful violet color. Blueberries are full of antioxidants. Their natural tartness balances well with the earthy flavor of matcha.

Tropical Green
For a refreshing twist on hot days, use coconut water instead of regular milk and add pineapple chunks. This light smoothie feels hydrating; the coconut water helps replenish electrolytes.

Protein Power
Looking for a smoothie that keeps you full? Mix in a scoop of vanilla protein powder and a tablespoon of peanut butter. This option offers lasting energy for busy mornings and provides protein to help repair muscles after a workout. Add the powder last and blend until smooth.

This recipe is simple and tasty. You might just find your new absolute favorite drink.
