Summer is here, and it's bringing the ultimate drink for you to flex on: the mango matcha latte. Vibrant, refreshing, fun, green, orange. This Instagram-worthy drink isn’t just a feast for your eyes but also for your taste buds. The tropical mango, mixed with the earthy umami flavor of matcha, creates a match made in heaven that’ll have you head over heels. Also, haven’t you seen it’s been a sensation on social media for a few years already? Yeah, it’s no wonder.
Let’s get to it.
Ingredients
-
½ ripe mango (fresh or frozen for easy prep!)
-
1 tsp honey (or sweetener of your choice)
-
1 scoop (1.5 g) Matcha DNA matcha powder (my partner-in-crime)
-
2 oz hot water (to whisk that matcha into frothy perfection)
-
½ cup milk (dairy or plant-based, whatever you want)
Step-by-step instructions to make your mango matcha latte
Making this drink is as easy as 1-2-3.
-
Make your mango purée: Cut your mango into chunks, toss them into a blender with a teaspoon of honey, and blend until smooth. You’re aiming for a creamy texture that will sit beautifully at the bottom of your glass. If you’re using frozen mango, it’ll take on a smoothie consistency that is to die for. Pro tip: if it’s a little too thick, add a splash of water!
-
Whisk your matcha: As you usually would, get your matcha powder and whisk it up with the hot water until it’s all frothy.
-
Prep your drink: Take your cutest tall glass and spoon in that thick, tropical mango purée. Add some ice, pour in your milk of choice, and top it off with the frothy matcha.
-
Sip & flex: Look at it!! So cute 💚. Snap a pic (obviously), stir it up (or don’t, I honestly feel like it’s so pretty it hurts to mess it up), and enjoy your tropical matcha dream come true.
That’s all, bb.
