2 servings
For the tea base
- 2 cups water
- 2 green tea bags
For blending
- 3 medium kiwis, peeled and roughly chopped
- 3 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
Ingredient noteAIP restricts added sweeteners, but small occasional amounts of unrefined maple syrup are accepted on the protocol; the ~1 tablespoon per serving here likely stays within that limited allowance. If you prefer to always avoid maple syrup, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 1 cup ice cubes
For serving
- lime slices, for serving (optional)
- fresh mint leaves, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Bring 2 cups of water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove from heat, add the tea bags, and steep for 3–4 minutes, until the tea is a deep golden-green. Remove the bags without squeezing, then let the tea cool to room temperature, about 15–20 minutes.

Add the cooled tea, chopped kiwi, lime juice, maple syrup, and ice to a blender. Blend on high for 30–45 seconds, until completely smooth with no visible kiwi chunks.
