Additional benefits of Matcha:
- Has numerous positive effects on the skin, helping it stay clear, vibrant, and youthful.
- Promotes weight loss
- Gives your immune system a boost with its antiviral and antibacterial properties.
- It’s a safe detox. Chlorophyll is what gives green tea its namesake color. The high chlorophyll content, particularly in matcha, has a detoxifying effect on the body, helping eliminate chemicals and heavy metals from the body.
- Has high levels of L-Theanine for an Alert Calm. L-theanine has been shown to benefit patients diagnosed with anxiety by increasing levels of dopamine and GABA in the brain.
- Reduces Heart Disease Risk and Hypertension
- Lowers Type II Diabetes Risk
Note: If you need a little more sweetness add a little organic raw honey.

Can you use another type of milk for this? I am allergic to almonds.
Absolutely! Coconut milk is also commonly used. 🙂
Hi! Thank you for this recipe. Looking forward to making this! Can you talk about the butter/ghee? I have a fatty liver & am noticing when eating fatty foods, that my body really doesn’t feel well. How essential is that element of the recipe?
