This Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie recipe is the only smoothie recipe you’ll ever need! Think immune boosting, metabolism boosting, detox, anti-oxidant, energy boosting, and above all that think DELICIOUS!
I seriously can have this Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie every day! And I actually have it in many versions depending on whatever fruits I have on hand, but the ultimate power boosting quality doesn’t change. It’s almost too good for words, and almost no words are good enough for this ultimate smoothie! A MUST-have smoothie recipe!
Why this recipe works:
Let’s talk about the healthy ingredients for this Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie recipe:
Hemp seeds: They are tiny little seeds bursting with omega 3 and omega-6, Vitamin E, a ton of protein and MUCH more!! This fascinating seed is neutral tasting with a bit of a nutty hint, and it’s smooth and creamy in texture once it’s pureed.
I’ve used hemp seeds before in this protein packed nut free hemp basil pesto—obviously for the protein factor, and because I needed a nut-free version for a kids’ playdate 🙂
Chia seeds: Chia is the magic tiny black seed that packs fibre, protein, amino-acids, omega-3 and minerals. Aside from its health benefits, this slightly crunchy seed has magical thickening properties which I use to make this instant chia chocolate pudding.
Matcha: This Japanese anti-oxidant powerhouse is originally green tea. But grown, cultivated, hand picked and ground in a unique way that makes it nearly 150 times a powerful anti-oxidant than regular green tea!
Besides, matcha green tea powder has plenty of fat burning, energy boosting, anti-cancer, memory enhancement, detoxing and immune boosting factor! Matcha powder tastes like ultra sweet pure green tea and just a little bit goes a LONG way.
How to make this recipe for Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie:
The recipe for this Power Boosting Smoothie can be summarized in one sentence: Blend all smoothie ingredients in the blender and serve sprinkled with pomegranate seeds.
As the recipe itself is so easy, let me talk about the rest of the smoothie ingredients some more:
Along with all those fabulous boosting seeds, this Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie has kale—another favorite of mine, and another powerful ingredient full of vitamins!
We also add an avocado to this Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie. I love avocados in smoothies for two reasons: Primarily, for the nutritional benefits, secondly for the amazing CREAMY texture the avocado provides without altering the taste of the smoothie at all—I promise!
When it comes to fruit, this Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie is as flexible and versatile as you can imagine! I would not skip the banana in this boosting smoothie recipe!
Bananas give my green smoothie this great creamy luscious texture and add a nice boost of sweetness.
Also, a word about the oranges. Orange adds plenty of fresh, sweet juice to my smoothie recipe—which is absolutely needed. Melon would be another great source of adding a flavorsome liquid to a smoothie.
By adding pineapples, kiwi and mangos—we get a nice amount of liquid and sweetness.
Make this AMAZING Hemp Matcha Kale Power Boosting Smoothie and take it to work, drink it in the morning, or evening to boost up your energy level. Alternatively, simply make it and enjoy it as a really refreshing, sweet and DELICIOUS drink!
Tips for success:
- I strongly recommend you stick to the amounts of the magic boosting seeds as they are calculated to provide you with the perfect texture.
- When it comes to fruit, try the boosting smoothie as it, and then play around with the recipe and add your favorites!
- If you do not have both mango and pineapple on hand, substitute the missing fruit with more of either pineapple and mango.
- In this recipe, I would not recommend replacing the avocado, banana or orange. They add texture and necessary sweetness. Feel free to replace spinach with kale.

Ok. So this was delicious but I used all the ingredients as stated in the recipes and drank the whole thing not realizing that it served 6! Hours later I am still full lol, so my question is, can you make it ahead of time and drink it over the 6 days? Will it keep in the fridge???
