Vegan Iced Oat Milk Matcha Latte

 Do you like the benefits of matcha tea, but don't like the grassy taste of green tea? This Vegan Iced Oat Milk Matcha Latte is a delicious way to enjoy the benefits of matcha green tea. This cold matcha latte is sweet and creamy. Perfect for a hot summer day.

 Matcha is a form of green tea that is a powder made from green tea leaves. Traditional brewed green tea leaves offer health benefits, and when those tea leaves are ground into a powder, the health benefits multiply. Drinking matcha green tea is compared to drinking 10 glasses of brewed green tea.

 The best matcha green tea comes from Japan, from a plant that is grown in the shade for up to a month. This produces the maximum amount of chlorophyll. The shaded growth also allows the plant to produce more L-theanine and caffeine than traditionally found in regular green tea. 

What Does Matcha Taste Like?

 The taste of matcha itself is frothy and earthy. For some, the earthy taste of matcha can make it hard to drink by itself. So, adding sweeteners or mixing the matcha into milk can make it easier to enjoy the taste and health benefits of matcha green tea. Some people like to add the matcha powder to their daily smoothie. 

 Matcha green tea is available in different grades, and each grade has its own unique taste. From Ceremonial Matcha to Culinary Matcha, the green tea powders also have different uses.

The Health Benefits of Matcha Green Tea

Green tea contains catechins, and the basic functions of catechins include their antioxidant effect. Matcha powder contains 137 times as many catechins as traditional green tea, due to consuming the ground tea leaves versus drinking the steeped tea leaves. Other nutritional benefits of matcha tea include abundant antioxidants, chlorophyll, and L-Theanine.
