Sugar Free Matcha Latte Recipe

One of my favorite treats during Sugar Free January has been a sugar free matcha latte. At first I thought I wouldn’t enjoy it without a bit of honey, but I was wrong! It’s still delicious without any added sweetener.

Matcha is powdered green tea. When you make regular green tea, you steep the leaves in water and then strain and discard them. When drinking matcha, you actually consume the whole leaf!

There’s no denying that sugar is flavor enhancing. It can make lower-grade matcha taste delicious. So if you’re going sugar-free, you definitely want to choose a high-quality matcha powder. My personal favorite is Encha Matcha in Ceremonial Grade. Their Latte Grade Matcha is also great, but not quite as sublime as their ceremonial grade. Just so you know, Encha sent me the matcha that I used in this post, but it was already my favorite from when I purchased it last year. 🙂

By the way, it’s important to choose good quality matcha beyond the taste benefits. Lower-quality matcha can be contaminated with lead and pesticides. I always choose organic matcha from Japan.

I recently read that certain ingredients make things taste sweeter without adding any sugar. Vanilla is one of those. Besides making it taste sweeter, it adds a beautiful flavor to your matcha latte so you don’t miss the sugar as much. I double the amount of vanilla extract I put in my latte when I’m going sugar free.

I find that when a drink is creamier, you need less sugar. Instead of using just milk in your matcha latte, try adding some cream as well!

Milk, cream, collagen peptides, vanilla extract, matcha powder (duh), a pot to warm the milk, a tea kettle (optional), a milk frother (optional), a bamboo matcha whiskand scoop (you can just use measuring spoons and a regular whisk if you want), and a mug.

I like to add half a scoop of collagen peptides so I’m getting all the good benefits while I enjoy my matcha latte.

Then I add water that is 160 degrees F and whisk vigorously to fully incorporate. Then I whisk in the vanilla extract.

Then I just warm some milk and cream to around 155 F, froth it, and pour over the matcha. If you don’t want to invest in special milk frother, you can just froth the milk by shaking it in a jar. Or check out my post, 8 Ways to Froth Milk, to see if any of those methods would work for you.

I wish I could make pretty latte art like my dad. Someday! He poured the art for the first and last photo. 🙂

So that’s how I’ve been enjoying a sugar free matcha latte this month. I’ll definitely still add a little honey now and then after my sugar free January is over, but for the most part I’ll be drinking it without any added sweetener from now on!

If you have any questions about matcha, make sure to leave them in the comments! I’d love to help you discover how delicious it is. It kind of tastes like cake to me…

Hi. I have some of the Encha latte matcha but haven't tried it yet. I don't have a whisk but do have a small handheld frother. I thought I would try that before I purchased accessories. Do you find that you need to sift your matcha? Also, I was admiring the mug in this post. Could you share where you got it? Thanks!

Yes, the hand whisk should work nicely. You may find that it makes more of a mess if you use a shallow mug like the one pictured in this post, though. I also use a regular whisk and pour just a bit of water into the matcha at first to make a paste, then slowly add more water, whisking until smooth. There really isn't anything that beats an actual matcha whisk, though!

The first mug pictured...I think I bought it at a thrift store? Either that it was one of my dad's mugs. The stoneware mug is called a boulder mug and I bought it from David's Tea in a set. They no longer sell it, but I recently purchased four from Miya Company because I broke the one picture here. If you contact them, they may be able to find some for you if they're sold out online!

It's a refreshing low-carb drink that's low in calories and has less than 1 gram carb!

I used to be a heavy coffee drinker, but recently cut back to only one cup per day. Some days, I try to go without, but I have a hard time going in the morning without it.

One of my favorite summer drinks has always been iced coffee. I would just brew a large pot of strong coffee and keep it in the fridge.

Then, when I wanted a slightly sweet refreshment, I'd pour a cup over ice and heavy cream. For flavor and sweetness, I'd use either a sugar free coffee syrup or flavored stevia.

Now that the summer weather is starting to hit Southern New England, I needed a cold brew to replace my iced coffee.

Well, I've found that new beverage. It's a delicious iced keto matcha green tea latte. And, it whips up in a minute with only 3 ingredients! How great is that?

Pumpkin Spice Matcha Latte (4 Ingredients!)

You may have seen the green tea latte at Starbucks. That drink is made with milk and a matcha tea blend that's high in sugar.

If you look at the nutrition info for the Grande 16oz with 2% milk, it packs in 34 grams of carbs with only 1 gram of fiber. That's way to many carbs to be drinking!

A latte is traditionally a hot coffee beverage that's made with steamed milk. But for an iced latte, there's no need to use heated milk.

For this easy homemade iced keto matcha latte, the coffee is replaced with green tea powder. A little vanilla sweetener is also added to enhance the flavor.

I've made traditional Matcha tea before and just love it. So, I was excited to give this powder a try in a creamy cold drink.

The weather has been pretty hot the last couple weeks, so it was the perfect time to test out an iced matcha green tea latte recipe. The quick beverage was perfect for hot day!

There's a lot of other things you can make with matcha powder. You can also add a little to baked goods, low carb smoothies, mixed drinks, keto protein balls, ice cream, yogurt, and so much more!

Have you tried matcha? Do you use it regularly? What's your favorite way to use it? I haven't really experimented with the powder much in recipes, but I love to drink traditional hot matcha tea.

For this recipe, I started with a cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk. If you're allergic to nuts, you could try using vanilla flavored coconut milk.

How Does Starbucks Make Their Matcha Green Tea Latte? What Are The Exact Ingredients?

You just add a teaspoon of matcha powder and sweetener. I used 5 drops Vanilla Creme Sweetleaf Drops as the sweetener which also adds a bit more vanilla flavor.

To make the latte, I put everything in my NutriBullet. You could just put it all in a container and shake it up if you don't have a blender.

If you haven't tried matcha, you really should. It has a lot of health benefits. I
