It was only a matter of time until we cranked out a delicious Supergut shake recipe featuring everyone’s favorite powdered green tea: matcha. And why not? Matcha is all the rage lately, and with good reason — it’s super high in antioxidants, and touts a host of other potential health benefits like improving brain function and focus. And like all green tea, it also gives you a little natural caffeine boost but without the jittery buzz of coffee.
