The Blueberry Matcha Smoothie tastes better without the whey, or it needs blueberry nectar instead of milk. I remembered what I was trying to match was a Tazo Matcha drink that had honeydew melon, and I have not tried to recreate that yet.
Adapted from Banana Berry Yogurt Matcha Smoothie
Ingredients
1/4 c. whole milk
3/4 c. 2% Greek yogurt
3/4 c. frozen blueberries
1/2 small banana, fresh or frozen, chunked
3/4 t. matcha powder
1 t. vanilla
1 T. orange juice concentrate
pinch of cardamom
1-2 scoops whey protein powder, enough to add 20g protein
Blend and enjoy!
DIY Smoothie Pack Directions
Blend everything except the fruit, milk, and protein powder and freeze silicon 1 oz. ice cube trays. 6 cubes + frozen fruit + protein powder in a zipper bag. Freeze. Empty the bag into a blender. Add 1/2 c. liquid and you have frozen yogurt / soft serve you have to eat with a spoon! Let the smoothie pack contents thaw before blending if you have an older blender, or want a less thick smoothie. Adding the protein powder thickens and "bulks" the smoothie and I haven't measured how it changes the volume in my DIY smoothie cubes.
