This is the perfect vegan breakfast smoothie, full of protein and antioxidants. Matcha has about half the caffeine of coffee, but in green tea the caffeine binds with L-theanine, which slows the body’s absorption. That means a longer, mellower, less jittery energy boost. 

Serves 2

1 avocado, peeled, pitted and quartered
6 raw cashews, soaked overnight and dried
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 tablespoons matcha
1/4 cup cannabis-infused coconut milk (recipe follows)
3/4 cup coconut milk
6 ice cubes

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

Cannabis-Infused Coconut Milk
 
32 ounces coconut milk
1 - 2 grams high-CBD cannabis flower, ground
Double boiler
Fine mesh strainer
Cheesecloth or paper coffee filter
 
Combine coconut milk and cannabis in a saucepan over a double boiler and heat over medium heat, stirring often with a wooden spoon.
 
As soon as it begins to simmer, reduce heat and simmer gently for 15 minutes. Do not let it boil.
 
Let cool.
 
Place cheesecloth or coffee filter in fine mesh strainer and place over a jar or bowl. Pour coconut cream through to catch solids. You may have to pour through a couple times before milk runs clear. Squeeze out last drops of coconut cream and discard or compost cannabis and cheesecloth.
