Ingredients
  

For the Shake:
  • 1.5 cups coconut yogurt (fat-free, vegan alternative available)
  • 2 teaspoons matcha powder (opt for high-quality ceremonial matcha)
  • 1 whole ripe banana (for natural sweetness and creaminess)
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for added warmth)
  • 1 cup coconut milk (unsweetened, or your preferred plant-based milk)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (minced, to bring a zesty kick)
  • 2 teaspoons maple syrup (optional, for additional sweetness)
  • 0.25 cup chia seeds (for thickening and added nutrition)

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Storage Container

Method
 

Directions:
  1. Start by assembling all your ingredients on the countertop. This will make the process smoother and more enjoyable.
  2. In a blender, combine 1 1/2 cups of coconut yogurt, 2 teaspoons of matcha powder, 1 ripe banana, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, 1 cup of coconut milk, and 1 teaspoon of minced ginger.
  3. If you prefer a sweeter shake, add 2 teaspoons of maple syrup. Blend the mixture until it’s completely smooth and creamy.
  4. Once blended, stir in 1/4 cup of chia seeds using a spatula. These seeds will help thicken the shake overnight.
  5. Pour the mixture into a storage container or individual jars. Cover and refrigerate overnight, allowing the chia seeds to expand and the flavors to meld.
  6. In the morning, give your Matcha and Ginger Overnight Breakfast Shake a good stir. You can top it with your favorite fruits, nuts, or seeds before diving in.
