Maca Blue Superfood Blend
Maca Blue is The Maca Team’s proprietary superfood blend of organic gelatinized Tri-Color Maca root powder and Blue Spirulina powder. Despite the name, Maca Blue is not a separate blue variety of maca root. The maca portion combines yellow, red and black maca, while Blue Spirulina gives the finished blend its distinctive natural color.
This simple two-ingredient powder is caffeine-free and easy to mix into smoothies, plant milks, water and other drinks. It offers a colorful alternative to plain maca powder while keeping maca as the primary focus of the blend.

What’s Inside Maca Blue?
Maca Blue contains just two powdered ingredients:
- Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Root Powder – a blend of yellow, red and black maca roots grown in the Peruvian Andes. The maca is gelatinized using heat and water to reduce much of its natural starch content.
- Blue Spirulina Powder – the ingredient responsible for Maca Blue’s naturally vivid blue color.
The combination creates a distinctive maca and blue spirulina blend without added sugar, artificial colors or caffeine.
A Different Way to Enjoy Maca
Maca Blue was created for people who want something a little different from traditional maca powder. Its natural blue color makes it especially well suited to smoothies and drinks where both the color and flavor of the blend can be enjoyed.
Blue Spirulina has a relatively neutral taste, while maca contributes its familiar earthy, slightly caramel-like flavor. The result is a mild blend that works particularly well with almond milk, hemp milk, oat milk and fruit-based smoothies.
Because Maca Blue contains no caffeine, it can be used as part of a morning or daytime drink routine without adding coffee, tea or other caffeinated ingredients.
Tri-Color Maca + Blue Spirulina
The maca in Maca Blue is our Tri-Color Maca, which combines the three primary maca root colors — yellow, red and black — in one blend.
Rather than presenting “Blue Maca” as another maca root color, Maca Blue combines traditional Peruvian maca with Blue Spirulina to create a unique superfood powder developed by The Maca Team.

How to Use Maca Blue
A standard serving is about 2 teaspoons (6 g). Maca Blue can be mixed into approximately 8 ounces of liquid or adjusted according to your preferred taste and consistency.
Some easy ways to use it include:
- Mix into almond, oat, hemp or other plant milk.
- Add to fruit or protein smoothies.
- Stir or blend into cold water or another beverage.
- Add to smoothie bowls, yogurt or other recipes.
Suggested use is 3–9 g daily, depending on your preferred serving size.
Make a Simple Maca Blue Drink
For a quick preparation, add about 2 teaspoons (6 g) of Maca Blue to a cup of your favorite plant milk and blend or stir thoroughly.
For a smoothie, combine Maca Blue with banana, plant milk and a pinch of salt, then blend until smooth. You can also experiment with berries, mango, coconut or other ingredients depending on the flavor you prefer.

Love the Maca coffee. Great taste and noticed subtle steady boost. The Maca blue is also pleasant tasting and a noticeable boost without jitters or anything like that. They’re just good all natural superfoods that do what they were created to do; nourish the body and steady the mind. Couldn’t recommend any better. It’s worth a try.

I use the Black Maca for my breakfast time. I save this product for my shakes, smoothies to give me daily boost of spirulina.
Michelle (verified owner) –
Tried mixing this with milk. It was gummy and didn’t mix well. I really, truly wanted to like this. I haven’t tried it again since. It was hard to drink with all the clumps.
Hi Michelle, Thanks for reaching out. Maca powder by nature is hydrostatic – that means it can be a bit clumpy when mixed in a liquid- for that reason we recommend using a blender or a shaker jar (under maca accessories on our site) to fully mix the powder. We’ll also reach out via email to help you with this. Thanks and enjoy the day!

I’m 58 and I work out regularly. I’ve added Maca Blue to my daily routine along with beet root extract, ginseng complex, B vitamins, and flaxseed oil. I like mixing it into smoothies or grape juice, and so far it fits really well with my wellness routine.
Millie Tardiu (verified owner) –
Love the product!
Bruce Barthalow (verified owner) –
This is my first time using maca Blue, I can’t say, I noticed anything different. No energy boost or increased libido. I mix this in grape juice or a I’ll put it in a smoothie. I’m not doubting the health benefits though. I’ll try one more time.
Rachael Schlecht (verified owner) –
I love making this for myself in the mornings. When I mix it using the recipe on the bag, I also add a tsp of Fresh Pressed Olive Oil and it has a delicious, smooth touch of banana/peanut buttery flavor. Wonderful way to get this superfood into my diet!

Wow, what an easy way to give a nutritional boost to my morning smoothie! Blueberries, spinach, and Maca Blue are part of my winning combination. Thanks, Maca Team, for always being a source of quality products!
Cindy Abraham (verified owner) –
I’m relatively new to Maca but I know that it gives me energy and strength. I don’t mind the flavor at all. Love the shake with Almond butter half a banana and pinch of salt. Good to go after that! No more 3p slump and gives me extra strength at the gym.
Jill (verified owner) –
I love it! It feels like my new addiction
Kent Harwick (verified owner) –
My wife and I had taken tricolor maca for a few years and ate huge fans of all its benefits! When you introduced blue maca, we became curious as to it’s claimed additional benefits. We tried it and could not be happier! We recommend it to anyone who will listen!
Andrea (verified owner) –
Love the addition of Maca blue to my shakes along with the red Maca. Add fresh spinach with it along with a few other ingredients and the energy I have is wonderful!
Shawn Maloney (verified owner) –
I use red and black maca every morning in my protein shake and love it. So I added Blue Maca in an afternoon protein shake. Love the taste. Mixes very good and I use this 1 hour before my workout. Blue Maca has helped with my typical afternoon energy crash which I no more due to Blue Maca. It is fast becoming my favorite Maca
Charlene (verified owner) –
Used this to replace my afternoon tea, I even carry some to work and I am getting a boost, especially when it comes to workouts. Now I find I have a bit more capacity to stretch myself where I would usually give up !

Best super foods ever, is my every day nutrition and metabolism support
Nancy Severns (verified owner) –
I mix a teaspoon in with a packet of Emergen-C and water when I teach a class at the gym. Love the blue color! Gives me the extra boost I need some days!
Darrell (verified owner) –
It’s ok nice blue color, taste is much better than black maca like black it helps keep me regular as far as energy goes I still have that let’s do this today thing going on. I should say I am 70 and other issues have shown a slight increase and I take like a teaspoon and a half every morning.
Gayle (verified owner) –
Definitely gives you energy. Nothing jittery. Just makes you feel like moving. I take only a half a dose and that works for me.
SuperFAST shipping!
Jill Holland (verified owner) –
I bought this because the list of potential benefits is long, and very attractive! So far only 4 stars because I haven’t been using it for very long. I just began working out again and haven’t tried it pre-workout yet, but I have high hopes that I will notice a difference. I was recently diagnosed with AFib and even though my heart is strong and structurally healthy, I will take all the circulatory help I can get! I’d like to find out additional ways to use it; so far I’ve only tried the blue smoothie, which is good. Maca itself has taken some getting used to for me (the taste) but I’m sure I will get used to it more as time goes on. I know the Maca Team stands by their product and theirs is the only maca product I have ever used.
Eric Sanders (verified owner) –
This is the best! I can mix it with anything from smoothies to coffee, and the feeling you get from it is automatic and instant. Plus it obviously has great health benefits with the Maca and spirulina combined. Great product!!
Judith Devereaux (verified owner) –
I blended Maca Blue with oat milk and it was delicious.
Chris Articolo (verified owner) –
I really like maca blue.
d (verified owner) –
I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it looked interesting. I tried out the recipe on the back and tried it in smoothies and it was good both ways. I noticed a difference in energy and libido within a few days just like with all the other maca products from this shop. The blue spirulina is a nice addition, and it’s easy to digest.
Richard M (verified owner) –
I was quite curious about this, & decided to order a bag. Besides its beautiful color, it’s quite smooth & creamy by itself in a cup of warmed cashew milk. I’ll probably add it to my morning cup of Macha tea or my protein shake. Like all the maca products, it has a nice energizing effect without jitters or caffeine crash. Love it!
Patricia A Carlisle (verified owner) –
can’t comment on how it makes me feel because I really can’t tell. However, it does taste good.
Stephany (verified owner) –
This product is very good. So far I feel energy and overall more spring in my step. I have only taken it a few times but I am happy and will most likely order more.
Ray (verified owner) –
Mix a spoonful with water before cycling my 25 miles and discovered my energy level has increased to increase from cycling 22 miles up to 25 miles now.

I love this Maca! It’s been a great way to start my day, quick and easy before a workout-and it gives me an energy lift that lasts!
RJ (verified owner) –
Excellent product. Great way to pack more nutrition into smoothies. We use is with homemade kefir, frozen blueberries, and a handful of frozen greens.
Kaitlin Cummings (verified owner) –
I mixed in 2 teaspoons with about 6 oz of unsweetened almond milk. It was very easy to blend, no lumps. I thought I would have to drink it as fast as I could to avoid an unpleasant taste but I was surprisingly wrong! It is a very pleasant, mild taste, and I actually enjoyed it. It gave me energy for my morning run. I look forward to having it again.
