Spice Merchants Iced Matcha Green Tea Latte
With Spring finally here, having something refreshing and healthy to drink is a must! This creamy iced Matcha Green Tea Latte lightly sweetened with vanilla almond milk and a hint of vanilla extract makes this a healthier version of deliciousness.
There are so many reasons to incorporate this mega superfood into your daily health routine.
Here are TEN amazing benefits of MATCHA:
- high in antioxidants
- increases energy level
- enhances mood
- improves skin
- boosts immune system
- lowers cholesterol
- stimulates metabolism
- detoxifies
- boosts memory and concentration
- helps prevent cancer
This Matcha recipe is made with vanilla almond milk, raspberry match (Spice Merchant’s also carry regular Matcha and peach Matcha), a drizzle of honey and just a splash of vanilla extract. Choose from Tahitian, Madagascar and Mexican vanilla extract available for purchase in our store or online.
One thing I recommend is to make sure that you completely blend the Matcha to prevent clumps in your latte. You won’t need a blender to mix the ingredients, but we do recommend picking up a Matcha whisk and bowl to make blending and mixing easier. Spice Merchants also sell these products for your convenience.
Matcha green tea is both refreshing and energizing. It acts as an anti-inflammatory, it’s incredibly high in antioxidants, boosts metabolism and boosts memory concentration.

I have been trying to develop an appreciation for matcha as I am well aware of it’s nutritional benefits but, I have not found a recipe that I like. This looks very yummy! I do not have one of the little bamboo wisks not the matcha powder but I’d really like to give this a shot. Thank you for sharing!!!
