    This post was created in partnership with Stonyfield and Hamilton Beach. As always, all opinions are 100% my own.

    As soon as the weather starts to warm up, I love breaking out my blender to make smoothies for breakfast or pre- or post-workout snacks. They're a great treat for my toddler, too, who loves anything and everything in smoothie form!

    But I don't always feel like digging out the big blender, cups, straws, etc. That's where this Single-Serve Blender from Hamilton Beach comes to the rescue!

    Matcha Fruit Antioxidant Smoothie + Hamilton Beach/Stonyfield Giveaway

    This blender is perfect for when you're on the go but want a smoothie fix. The blender cup and lid are dishwasher safe, which is a huge plus for me. I tend to make my smoothies on the thick side, and this blender definitely needs a little more liquid than my other one to get the smoothies going.

    For this particular smoothie, I wanted to get an antioxidant boost from Japanese Matcha and blueberries. I had a really ripe banana on hand, so I used that along with some ice cubes, although I'd normally add a frozen banana and omit the ice.

    For sweetness, I used just a tablespoon of honey and added a silky smooth cup of plain Petite Crème. You could use a flavored variety if you prefer, but I was trying to keep the sugar to a minimum here.

    I was hoping this would be a green smoothie, but the blueberries made it look... well... less than photogenic. But it was totally delicious! I love the earthiness that Matcha adds to this smoothie, but definitely feel free to add more honey if you'd like it to be a little sweeter. And if you happen to have frozen blueberries on hand, definitely substitute those here for the fresh to add a little extra iciness.

    I already have plans to make another green smoothie with this blender, and that one is going to get a major dose of kale along with the Matcha!

    Description

    Take an antioxidant boost on the go with this Japanese Matcha-infused smoothie.


    Ingredients

    Units Scale
    • 1 ½ teaspoons Japanese Matcha powder
    • 3 tablespoons hot (not boiling) water
    • 1 (5.3-ounce) Plain & Simple Stonyfield Petite Crème
    • 1 banana, broken into a few pieces*
    • ¼ cup blueberries
    • 1 tablespoon honey (or more, to taste)
    • 4 ice cubes (about ½ cup)*

    Instructions

    1. Place Matcha and hot water in a small bowl and whisk together until smooth. Let cool.
    2. Add Matcha mixture and remaining ingredients to blender and blend until smooth. If the consistency is too thick, add a little cold water to loosen it up. If it isn’t thick enough, add another ice cube and blend.

    Notes

    *If you have a frozen banana on hand, use that and omit ice.

      I haven't tried Matcha powder (yet). I like to make smoothies with plain or vanilla yogurt, a banana, and unsweetened strawberries, blueberries, and/or blackberries. I'm experimenting with adding cashew and almond milk.
