Healthy Green Tea Frappe May 5, 2015
I used to love the Green Tea Frappes at Starbucks. Then I looked up the nutritional information. *Gasp* So I’ve started making a healthier version at home! Here is the recipe for my Healthy Green Tea Frappe. 1/3 the calories, triple the protein, and just as delicious!
Ingredients:
- 2 Green Tea Packets
- 10 oz Hot Water
- 1 TBSP Honey
- 6 oz Almond Breeze Coconut Milk
- 1/2 Banana
- 1 TSP Vanilla
- 1/2 scoop AboutTime Cinnamon Protein Powder (Use code HAPPILYHUGHES for 25% off)
Directions:
- Brew both green tea packets in 10 oz of hot water the night before. Let sit for 30 minutes. Then refrigerate over night with tea packets still in the cup.
- In the morning, take out tea packets and pour tea into blender. Add in banana, a few ice cubes, coconut milk, protein powder, honey and vanilla.
- Blend and enjoy!
Mmmm! I really need to try some About Time – but I need their VEGAN version! Can't wait til they come out with delicious vegan flavors!
Gigi I used their Vegan Cinnamon Protein Powder for this and it was delish!!!
wow, this sounds amazingly easy and delicious! might have to try it out. I'm a huge fan of green tea.
I had no idea they make cinnamon protein powder – cool! I've only ever seen chocolate, vanilla, and what I assume is unflavored. My youngest is a green tea junkie, we will have to try these! Thanks for sharing.
Yum recipe! However, I LOOOOOVE your cup! Haha! It's just so fitting!
This looks really good. Sound super easy to make also. I love green tea.
Wow, this sounds easy to make and would be so much healthier than anything you'd find in a coffee shop!
This looks and sounds delicious! Going to have to try this. And I love that it's a healthier option!
Oh I've been all about the green tea lately – this is such a great way to get my daily fill 🙂 Love love love
Yum yum yum! I love green tea.
This sounds great! Can I ask – why do you put the protein powder in? Just to sneak in extra protein in your diet?
What a great, and simple, recipe. Looks delicious!
This recipe seems easy-peasy! May have to try it!
Interesting! I would have never thought to put green tea in my protein shake. Have you ever tried matcha powder? I haven't but was recently reading about it and how good it is/good for energizing so I think I might give it a try.
I've been to tempted lately to try making a green tea smoothie. Now I can start with your recipe.
That looks really good! I need to try it one day.
I'm pinning this for later, because I love me a healthier green tea frap! You should market this outside Starbucks Frappy Hour until May 10th…I'm sure tons of other ladies would agree with you!
