Matcha Dragonfruit
This cool, layered drink blends the tropical sweetness of dragonfruit with the earthy depth of matcha green tea. It's a vibrant and nutritious option, ideal for summer! You can easily adjust the sweetness to suit your personal taste.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup diced fresh dragonfruit or 1/2 tsp dragonfruit powder mixed with 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup ice cubes
- 1/3 cup milk of your choice
- 1/3 cup water
- 1 tsp matcha green tea powder
- 1 tbsp agave nectar or maple syrup or to taste
Instructions
- Add the diced fresh dragonfruit to a glass. If using powdered dragonfruit instead, mix the powder with the 1/4 cup milk and pour into the glass.
- Add the ice cubes
- Add the milk for the second layer.
- In a blender, combine the water, matcha powder, and agave/maple syrup. Blend for 1-2 minutes until fully dissolved and frothy.
- Pour the matcha mixture over the second layer to create the third green tea layer.
- If desired, you can skip the ice and use all milk/water for a non-iced latte style drink.
- Serve immediately and enjoy! The sweetener amount can be adjusted to taste preference.
Notes
- For added freshness, squeeze extra lemon juice over the pasta before serving.
- Feel free to add a handful of cherry tomatoes or baby spinach for extra color and flavor.
- Serve with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
