5 Ways to Use Strawberry Matcha: Lattes, Smoothies and More

Strawberry matcha is what happens when you take Japanese green tea powder and give it a fruit twist. You get the earthy, grassy base of matcha with a sweet strawberry note on top, which makes it a lot easier to drink for anyone who finds plain matcha too bitter.

Our Matcha Premium Japanese Green Tea Powder, Strawberry Flavored comes in a box of 20 sachets, 8 g each. One sachet is a single serving, so the recipes below are all built around that measure and you do not need a scale.

Here are five ways to use it beyond the obvious cup of tea.

1. Morning matcha latte

Start your day with a strawberry matcha latte. It is creamy and energising, and it takes about three minutes.

You need: 1 sachet of strawberry matcha, 200 ml milk of your choice, 1 to 2 teaspoons honey or another sweetener.

1. Warm the milk in a small pot without letting it boil.
2. In a cup, mix the matcha powder with a splash of hot water into a smooth paste.
3. Pour the warm milk over the paste, stirring as you go.
4. Sweeten to taste.

2. Matcha smoothie bowl

A colourful breakfast or afternoon snack that you can build in a few minutes.

You need: 1 sachet of strawberry matcha, 1 banana, half a cup of frozen strawberries, half a cup of almond milk, granola and fresh berries for the top.

1. Blend the matcha, banana, frozen strawberries and almond milk until smooth.
2. Pour into a bowl.
3. Top with granola, fresh berries or whatever else you like.

3. Matcha yogurt parfait

Creamy yogurt, crunchy granola and strawberry matcha in layers. Good as a portable breakfast or an after-dinner treat.

You need: 1 sachet of strawberry matcha, 1 cup Greek yogurt, a quarter cup of granola, fresh strawberries, a drizzle of honey.

1. Mix the matcha into the yogurt until evenly combined.
2. In a glass, layer the matcha yogurt, granola and sliced strawberries.
3. Repeat the layers, drizzle honey on top and serve straight away.

4. Baking with matcha

Matcha works well in cookies and cakes, adding both colour and flavour. Use 1 to 2 sachets in your usual batter.

• For cookies: mix the powder into the dry ingredients.
• For cakes: whisk it into the flour before you add anything wet.

Bake as normal. The strawberry note stays subtle and the colour comes through nicely.

5. Iced matcha green tea

The one to make when it is too hot for anything warm.

You need: 1 sachet of strawberry matcha, 200 ml cold water, ice, a slice of lemon, a dash of honey.

1. Shake the matcha with the cold water until fully dissolved.
2. Pour over ice and sweeten with honey.
3. Add a slice of lemon for a citrus edge.

A few things worth knowing

Matcha is whole green tea leaf ground into powder, so you drink the leaf rather than steeping and discarding it. That is why it tastes fuller than regular green tea and why it carries more caffeine per cup.

Water temperature matters. Boiling water makes matcha taste bitter, so let it sit for a minute after the kettle clicks off. For the latte, the same applies to the milk.

Once opened, keep sachets somewhere cool and dark. Single-serve sachets help here, since the rest of the box stays sealed while you work through it.
