Creamy and berry rich with dark, slightly winy blackberry and a soft matcha finish.
Blackberries have a deeper, winier flavour than raspberries and a dark purple colour. They are known for their fibre content. Matcha, the ground green tea, adds caffeine and a slightly bitter, grassy aroma, while natural yogurt and banana make the drink creamy and balance the acidity.
Late summer, when wild blackberries are ripe, is the best time for this smoothie, but frozen berries give good results all year round.
