Matcha lover's dream
If like me you're a Matcha fan, you'll quickly become addicted to this pineapple-kale-matcha smoothie. It's light, refreshing and packed with dietary fiber to ensure a smooth digestion.

Very low in calories, Kale is one of the most nutrient-dense foods on earth. It is the best plant source of vitamin K which we need for blood clotting. Kale is also loaded with powerful antioxidants such as vitamin C, beta-carotene, quercetin and kaempferol. It’s also a great source of calcium, chlorophyll, calcium, iron.
Super hydrating pineapple is packed with immune-boosting vitamin C as well as bone-friendly manganese. But what makes Pineapple really special is that it's our only source of dietary bromelain, a digestive enzyme that helps break down protein and promotes digestive health. Bromelain also acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory.
Small but mighty pumpkin seeds are an excellent source of protein and dietary fibre. They are packed with cell protective antioxidants, such as carotenoids and vitamin E. They also contain immune-boosting Zinc and Magnesium, which helps regulates blood pressure. What's more, they are a good source of tryptophan which, together with ZInc and Magesnium, help promote a good night's sleep.
One of the purest forms of green tea, Matcha is packed with antioxidant catechins, which help to protect from free radical damage. Matcha is also known to boost energy and help with fat burning. Green tea also contains the amino acid L-theanine known to relax the mind, regulate mood and help induce sleep.

Wasn't sure about this one, as don't like pineapple but was pleasantly surprised! Tasted lovely and fresh with just a little sweetness. Will order this again. Made it with oat milk. Yum!
Light & refreshing, lovely made with coconut milk.
One of the lowest kcal smoothies and it shows when made with water. Pineapple flavour comes over really well and hides the Kale or earthy matcha flavour. perfectly drinkable but you get a bit spoilt by the other flavours. One of the stand out USP's of this brand is the convenience of the cup making it really easy and clean for those on the move.
This smoothie gave me a real boost, I felt fantastic after drinking it.
Love this smoothie, fills you up and tastes great.
