Tropical Zen Matcha Smoothie

Ready for a tropical getaway in a cup? :) This is a perfect summer smoothie! Coconut, mango, and lime help me imagine I'm sitting at the beach.

What's a SMATCHA? A matcha (green tea powder) smoothie! Which is pretty much all of my smoothies! This month is PANATEA's SMATCHA month, and this smoothie was created in celebration! I'm a major matcha lover for many reasons-- it's high antioxidant content, unique energy boost, and great flavor.
