Mango Matcha Drink Benefits

I used 4 natural healthy ingredients to make this green smoothie. For that reason the smoothie offers several benefits.

Here are some of the main benefits of drinking this smoothie:

• Antioxidant Boost: Matcha green tea powder is rich in antioxidants, particularly catechins, which can help protect your cells from oxidative damage.
• A Boost of Vitamins and Minerals: The smoothie includes vitamins and minerals from multiple sources. Mango provides vitamin A and vitamin C, while matcha green tea contains vitamins A and C as well. Coconut water contributes potassium, which is essential for proper muscle and nerve function.
• Tasty Source of Hydration: Coconut water is an excellent natural source of electrolytes, making it a good choice for staying hydrated.
• High In Fiber: The smoothie contains high amounts of fiber, which can promote digestive health and help you feel full for longer.
• Boosts Energy: The natural sugars from the mango and the caffeine in matcha green tea can provide a gentle energy boost.
• Contains Omega-3 Fatty Acids: Chia seeds are a source of omega-3 fatty acids, which can support heart and brain health.
• Aids Weight Loss: The fiber and protein in the green smoothie can contribute to feelings of fullness. Furthermore, the smoothie is relatively low in calories.
• Possible Detoxification: Matcha green tea may help with detoxification due to its antioxidant content.
• Digestive Regularity: The fiber in in the smoothie can promote regular bowel movements and overall digestive health.

How To Make Matcha And Mango Smoothie 

This mango matcha smoothie recipe needs 4 ingredients only and is sweetened with the mango only. It’s also completely dairy-free and vegan.

These are the ingredients you will need:

1. Frozen mango: Using frozen mango instead of fresh can really help the consistency and the freshness of the smoothie. I definitely recommend that you use frozen mango.
2. Matcha  powder: I always use high quality matahca powder. I use Dr. Mercola Royal Matcha Green Tea Powder.
3. Coconut Water: The coconut water adds a refreshing taste to the smoothie, and it naturally works very well with mango.
4. Chia Seeds: The chia seeds provide numerous nutrients to the smoothie, but they also help thicken the smoothie too. 
5. Spinach (optional): If you have spinach or kale at home, throw a handful in your blender for extra nutrients.

Making the smoothie:

• To make the smoothie add your frozen mango pieces first to your blender since they are the most difficult to blend.
• Add the rest of your ingredients to the blender.
• Blend until smooth, it took me roughly 3 minutes to blend mine and reach the perfect consistency.

Options To Add Twists To This Smoothie Recipe

What I love about smoothies is that most of the time, you can easily customize them and add or swap ingredients.

Here are some customization options that you may like:

• If you don’t have coconut water, do not worry, you can simply substitute it for dairy-free milk of choice. Just make sure it’s unsweetened!
• Instead of chia seeds, you can either use  oats or a tablespoon of nut butter such cashew butter or even peanut butter.
• For an interesting twist to the recipe, you can add a tablespoon of cocoa powder. It can add a nice chocolatey flavor.
• The smoothie is sweetened purely from the mango, but if you like sweeter smoothies, add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.
• You can add a handful of leafy greens such as kale or spinach for more nutrition.
• As an addition to the mango, you can add banana or even berries. 1/2 cup is what I usually add as an extra when I make this recipe.
