Creamy Banana Matcha Smoothie (dairy-free)
Description
The Creamy Banana Matcha Smoothie (dairy-free) brings together banana, avocado, matcha powder, and a mix of coconut and almond milks, blended with collagen powder and ice. The ingredients combine to create a smooth, creamy texture highlighted by the distinct grassy notes of matcha green tea and mellow sweetness from the banana.
Blending the ice last ensures a smooth, chill effect without over-dilution. The avocado adds richness and body, balancing the vibrant flavor of the matcha. Collagen powder contributes to thickness and mouthfeel.
This smoothie can be served immediately as a cold, refreshing drink. It suits those avoiding dairy and prefers plant-based milks. The banana's sweetness complements the earthy matcha without overpowering it.
Frozen bananas can be used for a thicker, colder smoothie. For a tropical variation, mango can replace banana. Adding vanilla extract lends a softer flavor dimension. The recipe yields one large or two small servings.
Ingredients
- 1 banana
- 4 ice cubes
- ⅛ cup avocado
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- ⅛ cup coconut milk
- ¼ cup collagen powder
- ¾ cup almond milk
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a high-powered blender. Add the ice last to make it easier.

Notes
- Using frozen bananas makes the smoothie more refreshing and thicker, but room-temperature bananas are fine.

- Add half a teaspoon of vanilla extract for a richer, more indulgent taste.
- The recipe yields one large or two small servings, with nutrition based on the larger portion.
