Instructions

Add the unsweetened coconut milk beverage to a high-speed blender.
Add the matcha powder, unsweetened shredded coconut, banana, fine sea salt, and vanilla extract.
Add the ice cubes.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds, until completely smooth.
Check consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional coconut milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use a ripe banana for natural sweetness and creamy texture without added sugar. For a richer smoothie, substitute part of the coconut milk with coconut cream.
