Instructions
Stove Top: Add ½ cup + 2 tablespoons water to a small saucepan and bring temp to medium heat. As the water gets warm (not hot) add in 1 teaspoon Matcha powder, 1 tablespoon honey and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whisk together until fully combined. Remove from heat and let cool for a bit.
Glass: Add ice cubes to a glass and pour matcha mixture on top. Pour ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk on top of that and stir to combine (you can also learn how to make cold foam).
Serve: Enjoy!
Notes
Cold Foam Option: instead of just using plain almond milk you can get a little fancy and learn how to make cold foam instead!
Almond Milk Alternatives: feel free to use any dairy-free alternative in this recipe.
Honey Alternatives: date syrup, simple syrup or maple syrup also work here.
Matcha Ice Cubes: don't want your matcha to get watered down? Make some matcha ice cubes the night before and use them instead of regular ice cubes. Simply mix about a cup of water and a teaspoon or so of matcha powder in a small saucepan. Let it get warm enough so you can whisk the matcha powder into the water and it dissolves. Then let cool and pour into some silicone ice cube trays. Let freeze overnight.
Collagen: option to mix collagen into the water along with your matcha powder, if desired.
