The perfect pick me up, this coconut milk matcha latte is creamy, uplifting and loaded with nutrients. Sweetened with honey and made using a mushroom latte blend, this coffee-alternative is perfect for long, grey days.
Though I am a coffee lover through and through, I can't deny that sometimes it's nice to switch it up - especially during the cooler months! And since there are so many benefits to matcha tea, I don't mind the switch-up.
This dairy-free matcha latte is made with coconut milk and gives you a boost of focus and energy thanks to a secret ingredient.

Flavor Variations
This coconut milk matcha latte is sweetened with honey and made frothy with the coconut milk. However, there are lots of ways to dress it up, just like this Chai tea latte.
Cinnamon: If you like to curl up in the fall, add in a dash of cinnamon to the matcha latte.
Topping: If you have a milk frother, froth up some coconut milk and almond milk for a frothy add on. Or whip on some whole30 whipped cream for maximum indulgence.
Vanilla: Add in half a teaspoon of quality vanilla to really bring out the flavor.
