Boosted matcha smoothie
An antioxidant powerhouse to nourish and protect your skin and hair
There is nothing quite like a nutrient-packed smoothie to start your day or to refuel with after a workout. Sometimes it can be difficult to combine a plethora of beneficial ingredients in one blender and get something that tastes good. Look no further than this matcha smoothie with HANAH Coffee Boost: Beauty. This smoothie shows that our Coffee Boost products are not just for hot drinks but can also blend seamlessly into a wide array of recipes for a boost of healthy herbs and creamy coconut milk powder.
Matcha offers an unparalleled level of nutrition. Among its long list of benefits, one of the most notable is its antioxidant properties. Using an antioxidant research technique called ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity), experts at Tufts University have found that matcha contains more antioxidants than any other superfood. One type of antioxidant, catechin EGCg, helps to protect our cells from free radicals like pollution, UV rays, radiation, and chemicals. When combined with the four antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and detoxifying herbs in HANAH Coffee Boost: Beauty, this smoothie becomes a skin and hair boosting powerhouse (and it tastes great too!).
If you would prefer a brain boost rather than a beauty boost, simply swap Coffee Boost: Beauty for our original Coffee Boost. Or better yet, opt for the best of both worlds and add a teaspoon of both!
