Morning Matcha Latte

I used to think matcha was bitter and chalky-until I found this blend. Nekohama's ceremonial-grade matcha is smooth, vibrant, and never grainy. Add in collagen for creamy body and natural sweetener to round it out, and you've got clean, focused energy with none of the coffee crash. This combo makes matcha the easiest yes of my morning.

Why You'll Love Morning Matcha Latte

A creamy, vibrant matcha blend with zero bitterness and clean, focused energy-made with Nekohama matcha, SweetLeaf stevia, and Needed collagen.

Tips and Tricks

• Use water just under boiling (about 175°F) to preserve matcha's vibrant flavor.
• If your frother doesn't heat, preheat your water or milk separately.

Variations

• Add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract for extra flavor.
• Swap in coconut or macadamia milk for richer texture.

Substitutions

• No SweetLeaf? Use a few drops of monk fruit or a dash of honey.
• No collagen? Leave it out or sub with a scoop of your preferred protein powder.

Best served with

• A light breakfast like avocado toast or chia pudding.
• Afternoon recharge with a handful of almonds or dark chocolate.

How to Store Leftovers

Best made fresh. If needed, store in the fridge up to 24 hours-shake or blend again before drinking.
