Blueberry Matcha Smoothie
Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.
Especially when they happen on the same day. I am drenched to the bone, which is always a great way to start the week. (I know. Internet sarcasm has almost zero effect)
But I feel like the best way to bring a sunny step into this gloomy day is to make smoothies.
Matcha has become my (maybe not so) recent obsession. I am drinking matcha fraps and lattes from Starbucks like my life depends on it, and am dreaming back to those days when I worked at a bubble tea place and made myself matcha milkshakes.
Those were the days...
But now buying matcha at home has revolutionized how I make drinks! I am now thinking of putting matcha into every smoothie I make from now on.
And this smoothie might be the most kick-ass smoothie of them all! It has two of the ingredients that usually top lists of "healthiest ingredients": blueberries and matcha. Seriously, I can't get enough.
With this in one hand and an umbrella in the other, I think I can bear the rainiest of Mondays from now on.

I love matcha and every time spring rolls around I get homesick for Japan and have to buy some more along with some mochi and other favourite treats. I bet this smoothie has some kick with all of these antioxidants. Just pinned!
very very refreshing smoothie looks great.
I hope your weather has improved! We had loads of sunshine today, thankfully. But your lovely smoothie would help cheer me up on a gloomy day 🙂
What a fun way to use matacha! Love the color of this -- so nice.
I love blueberries, which unfortunately is very costly in Malaysia. It's a real treat for me to have them and I love the colour of your smoothie. But matcha....I am not really a fan of that.
I love smoothies, but have not tried matcha in one. Sounds great, I will have to give it a try.
perfect shake,yumm
Hey Cathleen! Where do you get your matcha powder from? All the places I have seen it, they charge like a gazillion pounds for the stuff, but I really want to try it, espeeeecially after having seen this smoothie, yum! Blueberries are da bomb 😀 Hope you've had a good start to your week despite the iffy weather *hugs*
I usually get my matcha powder from my local asian supermarket. I agree, it is pretty expensive, but I love the stuff 🙂
Go on Amazon
Great idea to add matcha in the smoothie...it is like a small shot of energy!
Have a great week Cathleen 🙂
Hi Cathleen, your matcha and blueberry smoothies look very refreshing. Nice click.
Have a nice day, regards.
these smoothies would definitely be a bright spot in a rainy day!!
I like the combination of matcha and berries. This is a power smoothie!
I have been thinking to buy matcha powder for a very long time 🙂
I've never even thought of buying matcha!
