# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes indulgent enough to feel like dessert but hits different when you need actual breakfast nutrition.
  • The whole thing comes together in under 10 minutes, which means you can make it on mornings when sleeping in was more important than meal prep.
  • You get that satisfying spoon-in-bowl moment instead of just drinking something, which somehow makes breakfast feel more intentional.
02 -
  • Matcha clumps if it hits cold liquid all at once, so either whisk it with a tiny bit of warm water first or drop it into the blender with the liquid before adding everything else.
  • If you freeze your banana more than a day or two ahead, it can get that weird crystalline texture—use it quickly or peel and slice before freezing so it thaws more evenly.
03 -
  • Batch prep your frozen banana by slicing and freezing several at once so you always have them ready without thinking ahead.
  • Sip a tiny bit of the smoothie base before adding toppings—you want to taste the matcha and strawberry without anything getting in the way, then the toppings transform it into something completely different.
