Detox Matcha Smoothie

May 20, 2018

There isn’t nothing better than waking up on a rainy Sunday morning, choose a new and wholesome cafe and check out their menu.

I keep a list of  ‘must to try places in Sydney’ on my phone that I update every week. Am I the only one that does this?!
There are so many good restaurants/cafes in Sydney and everyday there seem to be more. In this way I don’t miss out anything!

Last weekend my partner and I tried Gratia, a non-for-profit cafe in Surry Hills that donates one hundred per cent of their profits to charity. In this way you get to enjoy delicious meals and help those in need. It’s a win-win!

Erik (my partner) had the crispy chicken sandwich and I got myself a nourishing bowl (I always order bowls, they are the best because packed with lot of vegetables). For drinks we ordered the lavender white hot chocolate and the matcha smoothie. The smoothie was so good that I had to recreate my own version at home and share the recipe with you.

It’s super simple and it will leave you energised, hydrated and satisfied.
Perfect for these crazy moving days!

Detox Matcha Smoothie

VEGAN, DAIRY FREE, DETOX

SERVE: MAKES 2 GLASSES

Ingredients

2 Handful of baby spinach
1 tsp matcha powder
400ml coconut water
1 tsp coconut butter
10 mint leaves

Instructions

Place all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
Pour into two glasses and enjoy.

Notes

You can also add cucumber if you’d like. I am not a big fan of cucumbers but it will certainly add freshness to the smoothie.

    • Behind the scenes.
Since I am new in this community, I thought to share this photo with 10 facts about me, so you get to know me a little bit more:
1️⃣ I am intolerant to almost 50 different type of foods 😫
2️⃣ I am Italian but I have moved to Sydney 5 years ago with my partner. It was meant to be just one year’s travelling... 🤷🏽‍♀️
3️⃣ During the day I am a full time designer in the Advertising industry ✏️
4️⃣ I freak out if I see spiders and cockroaches. Yes, well I didn’t think about it when I moved to Australia 😰
5️⃣ I drink Matcha latte over coffee 🍵
6️⃣ I practice yoga every single day and I am thinking to do a yoga teacher training in Bali soon 🙏🏼
7️⃣ I prefer sweet over savory. I have a really bad sweet tooth 🤭
8️⃣ My favourite season is Summer. I spend every weekend at the beach in Summer time ☀️
9️⃣ I started wholesomesunroom.com because I love cooking and spend time in the kitchen 💕
🔟 I am morning person. I wake up every morning at 6am and I usually go to bed around 10pm from Monday to Friday. During the weekend I don’t really have a routine.
