Got tired of paying $5 for green tea fraps at Starbucks and wanted to make it at home. Got tips from a friend that used to work at Starbucks. For the smoothie base, I buy it from a local smoothie shop at a mall near my house. They sell me a big bag of powder which I split into small portions and make up small batches to use for this and other smoothies. Haven't tried myself, but this site is selling a similar smoothie base powder: www.frozenx- Ingredients:
2 teaspoons green tea powder (matcha) |
1/3 cup milk |
1/2 cup smoothie, base (liquid) |
3 tablespoons vanilla syrup |
1 1/2 cups ice |
Directions:
1. Add milk, liquid smoothie base, and syrup to blender.
2. Add green tea powder.
3. Add 2/3 of the ice.
4. Blend until ice is broken up into a fine consistency.
5. Check the thickness and add more ice and blend as desired. Careful not to overblend.
6. Add more syrup if you like it sweeter.
