Mango Banana Matcha Smoothie Ingredients

There are only 4 ingredients you need to make this smoothie with almond milk, or 4 if you choose not to use a sweetener. The tropical, exotic flavour of banana and mango contrast with the green, herbal taste of matcha, or green tea.

I recommend using fresh fruit for the freshest flavour. However, frozen banana chunks and/or frozen mango chunks would work instead. And you can always switch the fruit for other kinds of fruit. Anything from guava to pineapple, peach or berries would work in this recipe. Keep in mind if you’re using frozen (not fresh or thawed) fruit chunks, the smoothie will come out thicker.

In addition to that, you will need some kind of milk. I like to use almond milk and you can choose from roasted or unroasted (I find the unroasted one is creamier).

If you prefer, feel free to use another type of milk. Anything from soy to hazelnut milk would work, or even rice milk. If you aren’t especially looking for a vegan smoothie recipe, you can use regular milk instead.

Finally you might like to add agave syrup, honey, sugar, artificial sweetener, or some other sweetening agent. You can also omit this if you find the fruit already makes this green mango smoothie sweet enough for you.

Ideas for Toppings

There are plenty of toppings to choose from when making a smoothie with almond milk. Pollen is a superfood which can be used on top or you might want to add a squirt of whipped cream and a fresh berry or sprig of mint to pretty it up.

Green Mango Smoothie FAQs

Why do you add matcha to this vegan smoothie recipe?

If you’re curious what role matcha plays in this mango banana matcha smoothie, there are two reasons to add it. First of all, matcha adds a really nice flavour to the green smoothie. It’s vegetal, a little grassy and delicate tasting, and it goes really well with the fruit.

The second reason I love using matcha is it’s so healthy. This powdered green tea is rich in fiber, antioxidants, and vitamins. It’s believed to lower blood sugar and cholesterol, and also burn calories and boost metabolism.

Not keen on the taste of green tea? You can just leave this ingredient out of the recipe. The green smoothie won’t be quite as green in colour but it will still taste delicious. If you do love it though, try this matcha ice cream next.

Can I make this green smoothie ahead?

You can make this 2 or 3 days ahead if you like. In fact if you want to grab one of these in the morning as you’re running out the door, I would recommend making 2 or 3. As long as you keep them in a sealed container in the refrigerator, they should be fine.

Give the smoothie a good shake or stir before serving though since the ingredients will settle a bit. Since it only takes 5 minutes to make this vegan smoothie recipe though, you should also have time to make it fresh in the morning.
