It’s also a great source of catechins which are thought to be the most potent and beneficial of all antioxidants. Bada bing, bada BOOM.Īnother thing I love about matcha is that I feel more of a calm energy that helps me focus when I drink it, rather than the jittery effect that coffee tends to have. Then you just give the jar a nice shake (to make it frothy), pour it in a cup and microwave it for about one minute, until warm. I like to make larger batches at once then store leftovers in my beloved Ball Jars for the rest of the week.

They’re super easy to make, all you have to do is whisk the matcha with the almond milk over medium-low heat until it’s dissolved and frothy, then serve. Of course I can’t drink milkshakes every day so instead I like to add matcha to my smoothies when I’m in the mood for something cold or make myself one of these almond milk lattes when I want something warm. We stopped into a cute little café and as soon as I saw that beautiful bright green milkshake on the menu, I knew I had to give it a try. Which means I get to eat more MUFFINS, mwuahaha! )Īhem, so I first discovered matcha almost ten years ago, when we lived back on the east coast and were visiting a small town in Connecticut. And the best part is that I can drink it unsweetened, without any creamer, and enjoy it just the same. I love it because the flavor is mild and calming, yet it has enough caffeine to give me a little energy boost. I might not be a coffee drinker but I often enjoy a nice cup of green tea (I know, you’re shocked). I much rather save those calories for muffins, thanks! It’s so bitter that I have to dilute it with a bunch of creamer, then between the acids in the coffee and the saturated fat in the cream, my stomach turns so much that I don’t know whether to pass out or puke. Unfortunately it doesn’t work that way for me. I get it, a strong cup of coffee can make you feel like you could carry ten baby elephants across the Sahara Desert on your back. Us non-coffee drinkers are definitely the minority, right? If I had to guess, I would say somewhere around 75%. How many of you guys are coffee drinkers?

It’s creamy texture and soothing flavor makes it a perfect way to start the day! This Almond Milk Matcha Latte is made with just two simple ingredients. Dairy-free, Gluten-free, Grain-Free, Nut-free, Soy-free, Sugar-Free, Vegan 86
