This was absolutely delightful! However, I did make a few changes, although the basic ingredients remained the same. I essentially doubled the recipe, although in place of brewing green tea, I used about 2 cups of brewed green tea I had in a pitcher in the fridge. I also added 2 scoops of soy protein powder, and I ended up with a filling, tasty, satisfying breakfast drink. I will be making this often. Thanks for posting this.

I don't feel fair giving this a starred rating because I don't really like green tea but thought this might mask the flavor of it. In the end, it tastes healthy and I can taste the tea, ginger, banana and honey but strangely they overpower the peach which is my favorite ingredient. I used frozen peaches and blended the tea with the other ingredients. Sadly this drink just wasn't to my or my Hubby's tastes. Made for Zaar Tag.

Just like your description. Refreshing and good for you. I love how the ginger comes thru nicely. I followed your recipe as written only my banana was frozen. In that way I didn't have to wait for my tea to cool. Perfectly cold and Yum...Yum... Made for Veg-n-Swap~
