PRINTABLE RECIPE
I wasn't sure if this experiment would work, but it seems mango, maca and matcha are quite the combo. This super-shake includes antioxidant-packed, matcha, and the ancient Peruvian superfood, Maca, mixed with plenty of protein, healthy fats, and greens to super-charge your day! Maca has an interesting, potent flavor, so I tend to pair this agricultural wonder with sweet fruits to balance it out. The mango did just that! Maca tends to thicken smoothies, so keep that in mind as well.
