Simple Matcha Latte
A warm, healthy beverage, drinking matcha lattes is an almost-daily habit of mine. Perfect for any season, they provide a gentle, natural caffeine boost they are a great alternative to coffee.
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Almond milk Or milk of choice (I like Malk Vanilla Almond Milk). If you prefer a less creamy beverage, you can use 1/2 cup almond milk and 1/2 cup of water.
- 3/4 Tsp Matcha green tea powder I prefer organic, ceremonial grade matcha
- 1/4 Tsp Vanilla extract Optional
- 1 Scoop Collagen peptides Optional
Instructions
- Pour almond milk into electric frother.
- Add matcha green tea power to the almond milk by sifting it through a fine mesh stainless steal strainer. Do the same with the collagen peptides. This step helps break up the matcha and collagen to prevent any clumping.
- Add the vanilla extract to the frother.
- Froth on the warm setting until heated through. I prefer setting the temperature on my frother to about 140-150 degrees Fahrenheit and frothing the beverage twice.
- When frothing is complete pour into a coffee mug and enjoy!
Notes
*For a festive, holiday matcha latte, try substituting peppermint extract for the vanilla extract.
