Energy-Boosting Matcha Smoothie

This Energy-Boosting Matcha Smoothie, shared by wellness coach Czon Wong, is curated so every ingredient plays a dual role: taste and sustained energy.

RYŌKA matcha brings the bright green colour and clean, vegetal depth you expect from premium Uji tea, while its natural caffeine and L-theanine combination supports calm, sustained focus without the coffee crash.

Organic protein powder adds body and a creamy finish, and helps keep you fuller for longer so this works as a proper breakfast or post-training drink. Avocado is what makes the texture silk-smooth; its healthy fats also support absorption of fat-soluble nutrients and round out the matcha’s grassy edges.

A touch of organic raw honey softens bitterness and adds gentle sweetness, with natural antioxidants as a bonus, not a sugar dump. Blend it all with milk and you get a smoothie that tastes rich and drinks like fuel.

This version is mixed strong (6 to 7.5 g matcha). Newer to matcha? Start around 4 to 5 g and work up. New to preparing matcha? Read our 5-step guide, or compare grades on the matcha comparison chart.

Recipe questions

Is 6 to 7.5 g of matcha a lot?

Czon likes it strong. If you’re newer to matcha or sensitive to caffeine, start with 4 to 5 g and increase once you know how it feels.

Can I use a different milk?

Yes. Dairy, oat, almond or soy all work. Creamier milks (whole dairy or barista oat) give a richer finish with the avocado.

Do I need to sift the matcha first?

A quick sift helps if your blender is mild, but a high-speed blender usually incorporates RYŌKA fine enough on its own.
