Ingredients You’ll Need

1 cup soy milk: You can choose sweetened or unsweetened based on your preference. It forms the creamy base of the latte.
1 cup fresh spinach leaves or ~1/4 cup frozen: This sneaky ingredient adds a nutritional boost without affecting the taste, making it a great way to get in some greens.
1 medium frozen banana (in chunks): Acts as a natural sweetener and thickener, adding great creaminess.
1/2-1 cup ice: You can adjust this based on how frosty you want your drink; more ice yields a slushier texture.
1 pitted medjool date or 1-2 tsp of maple syrup: For a touch of natural sweetness, choose whichever option you prefer.
2 tsp matcha powder: This is the star of the show, delivering vibrant color and that distinct earthy flavor.
1/4 tsp vanilla extract (optional): A subtle hint of vanilla can elevate the overall flavor profile if you choose to include it.

How to Make Frozen Matcha Latte

Gather Your Ingredients: Start by placing the soy milk, spinach, frozen banana, ice, Medjool date (or maple syrup), matcha powder, and vanilla extract (if using) into a high-speed blender for a smooth blend.
Blend: Mix everything on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. You should aim for a consistency that’s less thick than a smoothie, perfectly creamy yet drinkable.
Taste and Adjust: Before pouring out your latte, taste it! Feel free to add extra sweetener if you like it sweeter or a splash of soy milk if you’d prefer a thinner texture.
Serve: Pour your vibrant Frozen Matcha Latte into a glass and enjoy immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Storing & Reheating

For the best experience, enjoy your Frozen Matcha Latte fresh. However, you can store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. If you want to save it longer, pour it into ice cube trays and freeze. This lets you enjoy matcha-infused ice cubes in your future smoothies or lattes for up to 3 months. When it’s time to enjoy again, blend those frozen cubes with a splash of soy milk to refresh the texture and flavor.

Chef’s Helpful Tips

Make sure your banana is fully frozen to achieve that creamy texture. Slice it beforehand or buy pre-sliced for ease.
Don’t skimp on the blending! A high-speed blender will give you the best texture. Blend until it’s silky smooth.
If you’re feeling adventurous, try adding flavors like cacao powder or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a unique twist.
Adjust the sweetness to your liking, bearing in mind that matcha has a naturally bitter flavor which some people might need to balance out.
Experiment with different types of milk if you’re not a fan of soy—almond and oat milk work wonderfully too!

Refreshing and nutritious, this Frozen Matcha Latte celebrates vibrant flavors and healthy ingredients. Enjoy this drink as a fun, creative way to explore culinary delights at home. Don’t hesitate to try different variations, explore flavors, or use different sweeteners. This drink is your canvas—go ahead and unleash your creativity while sipping a healthy delight.

Recipe FAQs

How healthy is a Frozen Matcha Latte?

A Frozen Matcha Latte is packed with nutritional benefits. Matcha itself is rich in antioxidants and can boost metabolism, while spinach adds a healthy dose of vitamins. The banana provides natural sweetness and potassium, making this drink not just a treat but a nourishing choice.

Can I use other types of milk?

Absolutely! You can substitute soy milk with any non-dairy or dairy milk of your choice. Almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk are great alternatives, but consider how each will affect the flavor and texture of your drink.

What if I’m not a fan of spinach?

If spinach isn’t your thing, you can simply omit it or replace it with kale. You may also consider using a small amount of avocado for creaminess without altering the flavor too much. Just remember, if you skip the greens, the drink might be slightly less nutrient-packed.

How can I make it sweeter?

If you prefer a sweeter drink, feel free to increase the amount of Medjool dates or maple syrup. Also, you could use flavored syrups designed for coffee drinks to amp up that sweetness and add a fun twist!
