Frequently Asked Questions

Expand All:

Can I make this dairy-free?

Yes! Swap heavy cream and milk with oat milk, almond milk, or coconut cream for a dairy-free version.

Can I skip the banana?

Yes, but it adds natural sweetness and creaminess. You can replace it with soaked dates or a splash of maple syrup.

Do I need a matcha whisk?

Not necessarily — you can use a milk frother or even a spoon, though a whisk or frother gives a smoother blend.

Can I serve it iced?

Absolutely! Just pour it over ice after blending for a refreshing cold version.

Is this good as a pre-workout drink?

Yes! It contains matcha (natural caffeine), carbs, and some protein/fat from nuts — great for energy without a crash.
