Servings 1 (iced latte)
Ingredients
MATCHA
- 1 large medjool date, pitted (if sugar-free, try subbing stevia to taste)
- 1/2 cup light coconut milk (canned, organic is best)
- 2/3 cup water
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 ¼ tsp quality matcha powder (see our Best Matcha Review for recommended brands // our favorite is Kyoto Dew)
- 8-10 average-size mint leaves (for super minty matcha, add a bit more // or sub peppermint extract to taste, but we didn’t enjoy it as much)
FOR SERVING
- Ice
Instructions
- To a small blender add pitted date, light coconut milk, water, sea salt, matcha powder, and mint leaves. Blend on high until creamy and smooth.
- Taste and add more mint for minty flavor, matcha for tea/grassy flavor, or a bit more date for more sweetness. Blend again to combine.
- Serve over ice and garnish with more fresh mint (optional). Best when fresh. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours (vibrant green hue will fade a bit). Not freezer friendly.
