Elevate your tea game with this creamy, invigorating Keto Matcha Latte, a low-carb twist on the classic green tea latte. Packed with antioxidants from vibrant matcha green tea powder and enriched with healthy fats like coconut oil or MCT oil, this recipe delivers sustained energy and focuses perfectly on a keto-friendly diet. Sweetened naturally with erythritol or monk fruit and infused with a hint of vanilla, it's both delicious and guilt-free. Ready in just 10 minutes, this frothy delight combines hot almond milk with expertly whisked matcha for a smooth, velvety finish. Perfect for mornings or midday pick-me-ups, this latte is a flavorful companion to your ketogenic lifestyle.
In a small saucepan, heat the unsweetened almond milk over medium heat until it is warm but not boiling.
While the almond milk is heating, bring a quarter cup of water to a near boil and let it cool slightly; it should be hot but not boiling to preserve the nutrients in the matcha.
In a small bowl, add matcha green tea powder and the hot (but not boiling) water. Whisk it vigorously using a bamboo matcha whisk or a small regular whisk until it is smooth and there are no lumps.
Once the almond milk is heated, remove the saucepan from the heat and add erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener), coconut oil (or MCT oil), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
Pour the whisked matcha mixture into the saucepan with the almond milk and stir well to combine all ingredients.
For a frothy latte, use an immersion blender in the saucepan or carefully transfer the mixture to a regular blender and blend on high for about 20-30 seconds until frothy.
Pour the Keto Matcha Latte into a mug and enjoy immediately for the best taste and texture.
