Looking for a smoothie that will give you a boost of energy and help you recover after a strenuous workout? The matcha green tea in this recipe delivers a hit of caffeine, while spinach provides almost every vitamin and mineral under the sun. Pear not only sweetens the deal, but adds plenty of vitamin C and fiber (especially with the skin left on). The skin also has most of the fruit’s phytonutrients, so put that peeler away! Less work, more benefits. Now that’s a green smoothie recipe we can get behind!
