Matcha Pink Drink Smoothie

This pretty Matcha Pink Drink Smoothie is inspired by the unmistakable iced beverage made from green and pink layers, that meet in the middle to create a pretty layered effect.

Pro tip: Don’t know what matcha is? Find out all about it and learn about the benefits of matcha tea.

Making this gorgeous smoothie isn’t as difficult as it might seem.

It starts with a Vanilla Shakeology base (the nutritionals below are calculated for the vegan version but using non-vegan Vanilla Shakeology is OK, too).

For the bottom half, you’ll blend the Shakeology with matcha and coconut water, then for the top half, blend it with coconut water and strawberries.

To replicate the layered effect, pour the green layer into your glass first, hold the glass at a slight angle, then carefully spoon the strawberry layer on top. Swirl slightly with a straw and enjoy!
