What is Matcha Latte?

Matcha is a finely ground powder made from shade-grown green tea leaves, packed with L-theanine and antioxidants. A matcha latte combines this vibrant green tea with milk and sweetener, creating a creamy, slightly sweet beverage that's both delicious and visually appealing. While traditionally served hot, this recipe is perfect for a chilled, refreshing drink.

Ingredients for Mango Matcha Latte

  • 1/4 cup strawberries
  • 1/4 cup papaya
  • 1/4 cup mango
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1-2 tsp high-quality matcha powder
  • Sweetener of your choice

How to Make a Mango Matcha Latte

  1. Purée the Mango: Blend your mangoes until smooth and set aside.
  2. Prepare the Matcha: Whisk matcha powder with a small amount of hot water until a smooth, lump-free paste forms. Add the rest of the water.
  3. Prepare Ingredients: Measure out your milk and sweetener.
  4. Assemble the Drink: Spoon the mango purée into a glass, add ice, pour in the milk and sweetener, and finally, top with the matcha mixture.

Recipe Notes

  • Matcha Types: Choose between ceremonial and food-grade matcha based on your preference. Ceremonial matcha is finer and sweeter, while food-grade matcha is earthier and more affordable.
  • Whisking: Sift the matcha powder before adding hot water for easier whisking and a smoother drink.
  • Layering: Use plenty of ice to create beautiful layers and gently pour the milk and matcha to maintain them.
  • Purée Texture: Adjust the texture of the mango purée to your liking, whether smooth or chunky.
  • Add-Ins: Customize your drink with additions like boba pearls if desired.

Customizations

  • Milk Options: Use any milk, dairy or non-dairy. Full-fat options provide a creamier texture, while almond, cashew, or oat milk make a great vegan choice.
  • Sweeteners: Honey, maple syrup, or agave syrup work well. Adjust the sweetness based on the natural sweetness of your mangoes.
  • Fruit Variations: Substitute mango with strawberries, raspberries, or peaches for a different flavor profile.

Enjoy your vibrant and refreshing Mango Matcha Latte, perfect for those warm summer days!
