Instructions

n a small saucepan, heat the cashew milk to a simmer.
In a separate sauce pan, bring water to a boil. Stir in matcha green tea powder and whisk until well combined.

Notes

Variations:

Matcha Green Tea with Coconut Oil

Believe it or not, adding the right fats to your diet can be a good thing. Add a tablespoon of coconut oil or MCT oil. I am a BIG fan of Brain Octane Oil.

Matcha Green Tea with Honey

In place of Swerve use 1 tablespoon of honey.

Matcha Green Tea with Coconut Milk

For a richer drink, replace the cashew milk with canned coconut milk.
