Green Tea Frappechino

Matcha is a very powerful antioxidant which means it strengthens your immune system, slows down the ageing process and helps eliminate toxins. We all know green tea is good for us, but 1 glass of Matcha green tea is worth 10 glasses of regular green tea! There's more health benefits because we ingest the entire leaf, which is also shade grown for extra nutrients. Matcha has a fair amount of caffeine but doesn't give you the jitters, making it a good replacement for coffee.
