Notes

Notes
  • The Starbucks version uses ground Japanese tea with sugar. In addition, Starbucks typically uses 2% milk and ice. For the homemade version, you can definitely use whole milk, oat milk, coconut milk, or any matcha powder and syrup you like.
  • You will find that the caffeine content is close to what is available in coffee. Indeed, one teaspoon of matcha powder will increase equally roughly half the caffeine content of a cup of coffee. 
  • Sweetened matcha powder is a little harder to break down than regular matcha fine powder, so be prepared to take measures to break down chunks or remove them from the top of the mixture.
