Organic Cafe Style Strawberry Matcha Latte Green Tea Powder, Premium Barista Crafted Mix, Authentically Japanese, 15 Servings (5.3 Ounces)

I am not usually a matcha drinker, but I wanted to give the drink another try at home. This was very good, not too sweet and doesn't have an overly earthy taste to it. I would order again :)

So refreshing! I was craving an iced matcha latte, and this mix absolutely hit the spot. The package includes instructions for hot, blended, or iced drinks. I made the iced version and followed the recipe for a lighter drink (2 teaspoons of mix with ¼ cup warm water). I poured that over ice, added unsweetened vanilla almond milk, and topped it with a few berries—so, so good. I’m not particularly artistic, but there’s something special about making a pretty drink with froth, layers of color, and a berry on top. It feels like a little daily treat. Best of all, it tastes like coffee‑shop quality without the coffee‑shop price. I can make about 15 drinks from one bag, and even with alternative milk, it’s roughly a quarter of the cost of my local coffee shop.

The matcha flavor is dull in both color and flavor; there isn’t that beautiful bouquet you get with really good vibrant matcha. The strawberry is ridiculously artificial and there’s a lingering after taste. I should have known better but I thought how bad can it be…..really bad.

I use their plain matcha powder and this strawberry one. My husband found the strawberry flavor for me and I have used it everyday since! I love it! It’s so easy to make. I mix one teaspoon of mix with some fairlife high protein milk. I add agave nectar if I want it sweeter. I have used it with coconut milk too! Delish!

This was the first time trying a strawberry matcha and although it tasted a bit sweet when I followed the instructions, I just added more water to dilute it - or use more milk or less powder. I used a milk frother to make sure it blended smoothly because stirring isn’t enough to do the job. In terms of quality, I don’t know because I don’t have a reference to compare to another strawberry matcha brand but in terms of taste it’s pretty good.
