Make it dairy-free.
To make this a dairy-free drink, you can swap the whole milk for plant-based options such as oat milk.
Iced matcha latte is a caffeinated drink.
Since matcha powder is made from green tea leaves, this drink does contain caffeine. Matcha is less caffeinated than coffee, but if you’re sensitive to it, you may want to consider a caffeine-free drink.
Expert Tips
