Notes

If you want to share your smoothie with your kids, I would leave out the matcha powder until the end. Make the smoothie without matcha, pour out their smoothies and then pop in ½ teaspoon matcha powder to the remainder of the smoothie mix and blend for yourself. Only because of the caffeine content.
Make sure you are using the big, sticky mejdool dates. If you can't get your hands on any, then use about 6 of the deglet noor dates as they are a lot smaller.
