Peppermint tea replaces milk here, so the mint comes through twice: from the tea and from fresh leaves. Avocado and banana still make it creamy.

Creamy and very minty, with mild avocado and gentle banana sweetness.
Using cooled herbal tea as the liquid is a simple way to add flavour to a smoothie without sugar or dairy. Peppermint tea brings a clear, cool mint taste, fresh mint leaves add a greener, softer note. Avocado provides mostly monounsaturated fat and a velvety texture, banana natural sweetness and potassium.
The tea must be completely cold before blending, ideally brewed the evening before. The result is a creamy, refreshing and fully plant based drink for warm days.
No, let it cool fully, otherwise the smoothie turns warm and dull.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
