Green Tea Cooler
Serves: 2
Ingredients:
- 1 cup green tea, prepared at regular strength
- 2 kiwi fruit, peeled and diced
- 2 cups diced honeydew melon, fresh or frozen
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 Tablespoon sweetener of choice (optional if fruit is very ripe and sweet)
- 6 ice cubes
Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender, breaking the banana into three or four pieces. Blend or process until smooth. Serve immediately in tall glasses.
Variations
:
> Replace part or all of the honeydew with another variety of melon. Make sure it's ripe!
> For a breakfast smoothie, add 2 Tablespoons soy protein powder and another ice cube.
> Try different types of green teas: a plain gunpowder, sencha, or fukujyu, or maybe one of the many fruit-flavoured teas that are readily available.
> Add some fresh ginger: Place a 1/2-inch piece of (peeled) ginger root into a garlic press, hold it over the blender or food processor bowl, and squeeze out the pulp and juice, scraping the pulp off the press if necessary.
