Matcha Pink Drink Shakeology
This pretty Matcha Pink Drink Shakeology is inspired by the unmistakable iced beverage made from green and pink layers, that meet in the middle to create a gorgeous layered effect.
Making this gorgeous smoothie isn’t as difficult as it might seem.
For the bottom half, you’ll blend Shakeology with matcha and coconut water, then for the top half, blend it with coconut water and strawberries.
To replicate the layered effect, pour the green layer into your glass first, hold the glass at a slight angle, then carefully spoon the strawberry layer on top.
Swirl slightly with a straw and enjoy!
Pro tips:
- Make sure the matcha powder you use is unsweetened and does not contain other additives.
- If you don’t want to make this drink in layers, you can blend all ingredients together to make a delicious smoothie!
