Persimmon Matcha Grapefruit Smoothie
It's time for our first smoothie recipe. Made with love by Julia from the south of Germany.
We decided to keep it simple, with just 4 ingredients. Banana, grapefruit, matcha tea and persimmon fruit.
Persimmon fruit are powerhouses of nutrition. They're packed full of vitamin A, vitamin C, B vitamins, antioxidants and dietary fibre. Here's some of their health benefits:
- Anti-tumor
- Anti-aging
- Eye health
- Lower blood pressure
- Better circulation
- Increased metabolism (boost energy, immune system, improved digestion, boost immune system)
You can read more about that here.
Bananas are also super healthy, and did you know they are actually a kind of berry?! We didn't! You can read all about them on well-beingsecrets.com.
Here's the recipe. Enjoy!

- 1 medium banana (sliced)
- 1 grapefruit
- 1 tsp matcha green tea powder
- 1 persimmon fruit (sliced)
Directions
- Squeeze the juice from the grapefruit.
