If you happened to have checked out our drink section here on LCA, you’ll know that I love milk tea drinks! And my love for Iced Matcha Latte is no different! In my opinion, these simple and easy drinks taste like green tea matcha ice cream in a cup, and who doesn’t want that!
The recipe is so easy and only requires 3 ingredients to put together in your own kitchen! No need to wait in the long lines at your local boba shops anymore! Beat the line and heat this summer and just make it at home!
The method we used to make this Iced Matcha Latte is very similar to the Milk Tea recipe. So if you happen to like milk teas, make sure you check out all of our other milk tea inspired low-carb/keto creation here!
For those that aren’t all that familiar with Matcha, it’s finely ground powder from green tea leaves that are grown specially in the shade which produces more theanine and caffeine.
Theanine in the tea leaves is what promotes relaxation, reduces stress and improves sleep, as well as boost concentration and alertness. The entire process of making Matcha takes several weeks which may explain the hefty price but the benefits are worth it!
For this recipe, the special ingredients you will need are Swerve/Monkfruit and Matcha Powder, which can be purchased on Amazon or a local specialty supermarket.
Now, let’s get started!
