Vegan Matcha Latte

The perfect combination of creaminess and an earthy taste, this matcha latte should satiate any cravings you’ll have for matcha. 

Ingredients

1 1/4 tsp matcha powder 

1 Tbsp maple syrup 

1 Tbsp hot water

3/4 cup light coconut milk

3/4 cup macadamia nut milk 

Instructions

1. Add matcha powder to your serving mug along with sweetener of choice and hot water.
2. Whisk with a bamboo whisk or a metal whisk until completely dissolved. If you don’t have a bamboo whisk, you can use a spoon or a metal whisk or even blend the latte in a blender. 
3. Once the matcha is completely dissolved, heat your dairy-free milk. You can add them to a frothing pitcher and steam them with an espresso machine, heat them in the microwave or on the stovetop until hot and steamy. To get more froth, you can whisk vigorously or use a handheld frother.
4. Pour dairy-free milk into your mug. Taste and add more sweetener if needed.
5. Enjoy immediately.

14 oz white chocolate

1 tsp vanilla extract

½ tsp salt

Instructions

1. Prepare an 8×8 baking pan by greasing the pan and covering it with parchment paper.

3. Add the white chocolate chips and mix until they melt.
4. Add the vanilla extract and salt. Mix until incorporated.
5. Pour the fudge into the prepared baking pan. Use a spatula to spread it into an even layer. Cool at room temperature until fully cool (15-20 minutes). Cover and chill for at least 3 hours in the fridge.
6. Optional: Sift extra matcha powder over the top before serving.
7. Enjoy!
