Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder (I, Sundi Jo, use Ancient Nutrition Matcha for quality and flavor)
- 2 tablespoons hot water
- 1 cup unsweetened dairy-free milk (oat, almond, or coconut) – Walmart | Amazon
- 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or agave (optional) – Walmart | Amazon
- Ice
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk the matcha with hot water until smooth and slightly frothy.
- Fill a glass with ice. Pour in your dairy-free milk and stir in sweetener, if desired.
- Slowly pour the matcha over the milk. Stir gently, sip, and enjoy!
Tips for the Best Iced Matcha
- Use a milk frother or bamboo whisk for a smooth mix.
- Oat or cashew milk adds extra creaminess.
- Avoid carrageenan—some plant-based milks include this thickener, which may come from mammalian sources and cause reactions in those with alpha-gal syndrome. Always check the label and choose clean, carrageenan-free brands.
- For flavor variety, add a splash of vanilla or cinnamon.
