Recently I’ve been having matcha in the morning, so I decided to show how I’ve been making it.
Matcha is a great alternative to coffee because it has caffeine and boosts your energy, but it won’t give you jitters or a crash like coffee. Matcha promotes feelings of relaxation, improves focus, and it’s full of antioxidants. These are only a few of the many benefits of matcha.
I also like to add collagen to this drink because I try to have collagen every day, but this is optional.
Ingredients
- About 4 ounces of water
- 1 teaspoon matcha
- Sweetener to taste (I used date syrup, but you could use honey, maple syrup, etc.)
- A scoop of collagen (optional)
- Ice
- Almond milk (use my easy recipe to make your own!)
Directions
- Heat up the water until it’s just under a boil.
- Pour the water into your glass and then add the matcha, sweetener, and collagen, if using. Use a hand held frother to mix this all together.
- Add ice to the glass.
- Fill the rest of the glass with almond milk.
- Stir and enjoy!
