New Year, New You
As the calendar turns, there’s no better time to embrace habits that nurture both body and mind. Introducing matcha into your daily routine is a simple yet powerful way to cultivate mindfulness and wellness. This green tea, celebrated for centuries in Japanese tradition, offers a rich source of antioxidants, sustained energy without the jitters, and a calming sense of focus thanks to its unique blend of caffeine and L-theanine. Whether enjoyed as a morning ritual or a midday pause, DōMatcha® can transform ordinary moments into opportunities for balance and renewal—setting the tone for a healthier, more intentional year ahead. But, what if you’re new to matcha? How do you introduce it into your day-to-day life as seamlessly as possible? We decided to help and offer a few ideas to help with the “matcha curious” explore the wonderful world of matcha.
Matcha Latte
A matcha latte is the perfect way to enjoy the benefits of matcha in a creamy, comforting form. By blending high-quality DōMatcha® powder with steamed almond milk (or another plant-based milk) you create a smooth, velvety drink that balances the earthy notes of matcha with a subtle sweetness. This beverage not only delivers antioxidants and sustained energy but also feels like a soothing ritual—ideal for mornings or an afternoon pick-me-up. Customize it with a touch of honey, maple syrup, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flavor, and you’ll have a nourishing treat that supports both wellness and indulgence.
Iced Matcha Latte
An iced matcha latte is a cool, invigorating way to enjoy the benefits of matcha, perfect for warm days or when you crave a lighter, chilled beverage. By simply whisking high-quality DōMatcha® powder with water and pouring it over ice, then topping with almond milk (or another plant-based milk), you create a crisp, creamy drink that delivers antioxidants and steady energy without the crash. Its vibrant green hue and smooth texture make it as visually appealing as it is nourishing. Much like its hot counterpart, adding a touch of honey or vanilla provides a hint of sweetness to this refreshing treat. This works as a nice alternative to the more traditional hot matcha-based drink.
Matcha White Hot Chocolate
If you’re looking for a more luxurious way to enjoy the soothing benefits of matcha while indulging in a sweet, creamy treat, look no further than the Matcha White Hot Chocolate. This comforting drink combines the earthy flavor of DōMatcha® with the velvety sweetness of melted white chocolate, creating a harmonious balance of flavors. Perfect for chilly days or as a decadent evening ritual, it still delivers the antioxidants and a gentle energy boost while satisfying your sweet tooth. Top it with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of matcha powder for an elegant finish, and you’ll have a beverage that feels both festive and nourishing. Need a recipe?
