At Revolution Tea, if there is one thing we know about Arizona summers it's—they are hot! Our team has been talking about ways to beat the heat and enjoy the warm summer evenings this week and during those conversations, we created the perfect tropical green tea smoothie.
This simple, yet fantastic flavor combines the awesome taste of tropical green tea with sweet mangoes and strawberries. The result is a refreshing tropical tea smoothie that is the perfect balance of flavor and consistency. You can also add a shot of your favorite light or dark rum and turn this smoothie into a summertime tropical daiquiri, just don't drink and drive afterward!
The beauty of this recipe is that you can substitute your favorite fruit with the frozen fruit of your choice or add some coconut chunks to the mix and make a Franken-smoothie to your taste, but we recommend sticking to the sweet and tart fruits of the tropical and berry variety.
Whatever you choose, we know that the tropical green tea from Revolution Tea will give the smoothie a unique flavor that will have you running back to the kitchen to make more.
