This easy matcha beverage powers me up for breakfast, or serves as an energizing snack during the day. This creamy matcha latte is similar to a smoothie recipe, but it's like a smoothie on steroids.

The ingredients are blended until smooth, frothy and delish.
This drink is perfect before a stressful meeting (even a parent-teacher conference), or try it right before your daily meditation session to get into a peaceful headspace. The preparation of matcha is the focus of Japanese tea ceremonies, and it has long been associated with a "Zen state of mind." Namaste!
