Mint Matcha Latte

Matcha lattes don't get any healthier or easier than this. Simply blend matcha with hot water, cashews, dates and peppermint extract for a minty, frothy drink. Enjoy this lightly caffeinated drink in the morning or in the afternoon for a healthy little energy boost.

Mint Matcha Latte [Vegan]

Ingredients

• 2 cups hot water
• 2 teaspoons matcha green tea powder
• 1-2 Medjool dates, pitted
• 1/4 cup raw cashews
• 1/8-1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract

Preparation

1. Blend all the ingredients in a high-speed blender for 30 seconds or until smooth and frothy.

Notes

I recommend starting with 1 date and 1/8 teaspoon of peppermint extract. Try it, then adjust to taste. You get a stronger matcha taste when using less dates and peppermint extract, so if you want a sweeter, less green tea-tasting drink, use 2 dates and 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract. This drink works best with a strong blender. If your blender is on the weaker side, strain your milk using a fine mesh sieve or nut milk bag. Your drink should be smooth.
