# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It comes together in under 10 minutes, yet tastes like you spent way more effort than you actually did.
  • The matcha gives you that calm energy boost without the jitters, and honestly, it makes you feel a little fancy eating it.
  • You can customize the toppings based on what's in your fridge, so it's never boring and never wasteful.
02 -
  • Don't skip freezing the banana ahead of time, because a room-temperature banana will make everything too thin and you'll lose that luxurious thickness that makes this feel special.
  • Matcha powder can clump if you don't blend it well, so if you see small specks floating around, just give it another 10-second pulse and it'll smooth right out.
03 -
  • Make the smoothie base the night before and refrigerate it, then just add toppings in the morning if you're in a rush, though the texture is best served fresh.
  • If you don't have frozen banana, use fresh banana plus a handful of ice cubes, adding them gradually so you don't end up with something too watery.
