Strawberry Matcha Latte – Drinks and Smoothie Recipes

If you’ve got five minutes, a blender, and a sweet tooth, this strawberry matcha latte just might be your new favorite. We’re talking about a layer of creamy, sweet strawberries topped with earthy, vibrant matcha green tea. It’s the kind of drink that looks like a café masterpiece, but you made it at home—in your slippers. I always keep a stash of frozen strawberries for smoothies, but this? This takes it to another level. You’ll get that rich matcha flavor balanced perfectly with fruity freshness. It’s like sipping spring through a straw. No joke, I even tricked my grumpy Monday mood into thinking I was on vacation. So whether you need a quick mid-afternoon pick-me-up or just want to post something that looks stunning on your feed, this drink does both. Drinks and Smoothie Recipes don’t have to be complicated, and this one proves it. Oh, and did I mention it’s way better than anything you’ll get at a coffee shop drive-thru?
