Get into the holiday spirit with this warming gingerbread matcha latte! Made with high-quality ingredients and festive spices, it’s the perfect blend of cozy and energizing.
Ingredients:
- 2 tsp – 1 tbsp matcha powder (I recommend Pique Tea Organic Ceremonial Matcha—it’s smooth, vibrant, and packed with nutrients! Use my discount link for 15% off plus a free starter kit (beaker + frother).
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- A pinch of nutmeg
- A pinch of cloves
- 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 cup warm milk (grass-fed A2 milk, raw milk, or organic almond/oat milk work beautifully)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: whipped cream and cinnamon for topping
Instructions:
- Mix the matcha and spices: Add matcha powder, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves to a bowl. Pour in 2–3 tbsp of warm water and whisk until smooth, or use an electric frother.
- Froth the milk and sweetener: Warm your milk in a small saucepan. Froth together with maple syrup and vanilla extract until creamy and frothy.
- Combine: Pour the frothed milk over the spiced matcha mixture.
- Optional topping: Finish with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra festive touch.
Why This Recipe Works:
- Matcha’s unique benefits: Rich in antioxidants, it provides calm, focused energy without the crash.
- Gingerbread spices: Add warmth and holiday cheer, making it a cozy seasonal favorite.
- Customizable: Choose your preferred milk and sweetness level for a drink that suits any dietary preference.
- Ceremonial-grade matcha advantage: Made from the youngest, tender leaves, ceremonial matcha has a smoother, sweeter taste and higher nutrient quality compared to culinary matcha, which is bolder and more bitter—better suited for cooking or baking.
