    Irresistible, Homemade Green Tea Iced Matcha Latte - A healthy and flavorful way to get an afternoon burst of energy!

    I am a big coffee lover but sometimes I want something a little different. A cup of coffee doesn’t always hit the spot. This is especially true in the afternoon when I want a little caffeine to wake me up but I also want something with a whole lot of flavor. That is when I turn to Matcha Iced Latte.

    What Is Matcha?

    Matcha is a kind of green tea. It is actually grown a little differently than other teas to make it healthier than the normal tea leaves. Matcha plants are covered for the last 30 days of the growing season.

    This increases chlorophyll production in the plants, gives them more amino acids and also makes them a deep, bright green color. That green is matcha’s signature look!

    Is Matcha Healthy?

    Matcha has lots of natural antioxidants, even more than is normally found in a green tea. Drinking iced matcha latte can also help promote weight loss, improve heart health and help protect the liver from free radicals.

    Seems like a pretty powerful tea!

    Ingredients in an Iced Matcha Latte:

    You don’t need much to make a perfect coffee shop style matcha latte. Our recipe sticks to the basics, highlighting the delicious taste of the matcha. Super easy recipes are the best!

    Here is what we use to make our delicious drink:

    Matcha Powder- Be sure to use high quality matcha powder. Look for matcha that is labeled “culinary grade” or, even better, “ceremonial grade”. These have the best flavor and will also dissolve easily.

    Water- Water helps dissolve the matcha powder.

    Vanilla Extract- A small amount of vanilla extract adds a natural sweetness to the latte.

    Almond Milk- We love the subtle flavor of almond milk mixed with matcha. Feel free to use oat milk, whole milk, or any of your favorite dairy free milks. Any milk will work!

    Ice- We like a nice cold latte!

    All these simple ingredients come together to make a fantastic, cold drink that is better than coffee. It really is the perfect pick me up that you need in the morning or afternoon.

    Give our recipe a try and let us know what you think. We think you are going to love it. It may be your new, go-to afternoon drink! Enjoy.

    A classic iced latte is made with espresso, a powerful coffee drink. I is made with green tea powder. Essentially the difference is coffee versus tea.

    Iced matcha lattes do have caffeine. However, it still has less caffeine than brewed coffee.
