If you have read my other articles, you will know that I love milk tea drinks. My love for Iced Matcha Green Tea Lattes is no different. It tastes like drinkable green tea ice cream in a cup.
My way of making it is very similar to my Milk Tea recipe. If you love milk tea, make sure you check it out.
Matcha is finely ground powder from green tea leaves that are grown specially in the shade which produces more theanine and caffeine.
Theanine in tea 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.
**You can replace half and half with heavy cream if you are strict keto however, we choose to use half and half for the consistency since the amount is only a couple tablespoons.
