DIRECTIONS
- SMOOTHIE: Combine all ingredients using a high-speed blender. For larger yield recipe, divide ingredients into batches or use 64-oz blender jar. Begin on low speed gradually increasing to high speed and then blending for 1 minute or until smooth and creamy. Reserve chilled.
- WHIPPED VANILLA AQUAFABA: Strain aquafaba (garbanzo bean liquid) into a mixing bowl. Using a stand or hand mixer whisk attachment, whisk aquafaba on high speed until it begins to foam.
- Add cream of tartar, continuing to whisk on high speed until the liquid thickens and resembles meringue (about 30 seconds).
- Reduce speed to medium, add vanilla extract, then slowly add in the confectioners’ sugar.
- Continue to whip until the aquafaba forms stiff peaks. Transfer whipped aquafaba into a piping bag. Store refrigerated until ready to use.
- PRESENTATION: For each smoothie, portion 3/4 cups of Matcha Latte Smoothie into an 8-oz. cup. Using the piping bag, squeeze 1/4 cup of the whipped vanilla aquafaba on top and then sprinkle with 1/4 tsp matcha green tea powder.
