Creamy Avocado Matcha Shake
I love this shake because it’s a lovely blend of creamy avocado and earthy matcha, making it perfect for a morning boost or an afternoon pick-me-up.
This Creamy Avocado Matcha Shake has become one of my go-to recipes when I need a quick, nourishing snack.
I remember the first time I tried matcha; I was skeptical, but the way it complements the smoothness of avocado blew me away!
Plus, it’s packed with healthy fats and antioxidants.
My tip?
Always use ripe avocados for that dreamy texture!

Tips & Notes
- •Use a ripe avocado for the best creamy texture.
- •If you want a sweeter shake, add more maple syrup, but I usually find one tablespoon is enough.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll add a handful of spinach to sneak in some extra greens.
- •If I’m in the mood for a protein boost, I’ll toss in a scoop of my favorite vegan protein powder!
Storage & Freezing
If you have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge, but be aware that the color may change a bit due to the avocado. I usually try to enjoy it right after making for the best flavor and texture.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this shake ahead of time?
I wouldn’t recommend making it too far ahead, as the avocado can brown. But if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a day.
