Green Tea Mandarin Smoothie

When the weather starts to get chilly, we start thinking of ways to build up our immune system to fight off those colds.  Green tea is loaded with antioxidants, so it’s only natural that we’d want to find as many ways to enjoy it as we can.  This is one smoothie that not only satisfies, but fortifies!

1 cup boiling water
4 Green Tea with Mandarin Orange Flavor Tea Bags
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 ripe banana
1/2 cup ice cubes

Place the tea bags in the boiling water and steep for 2 to 3 minutes.   Remove the tea bags.  Add the sugar and stir to dissolve.  Place in the refrigerator and chill about 30 minutes.

Place the chilled tea in the blender.  Add the banana and ice cubes.  Blend until smooth and creamy.
