We’ve all been there. Things are going great, you’ve had a productive morning and a healthy lunch, and then it hits you hard - that dreaded afternoon slump.

A sort of superhero of teas, Matcha Green Tea is a super-concentrated powder that’s full of antioxidants and feel-good nutrients, which have amazing benefits for your physical and mental health. It’s a great alternative to getting your caffeine boost in a healthier way and has over 100 times more antioxidants than regular brewed green tea - plus it aids weight loss and fat burning.
It can be made in 5 minutes or less, prepped in advanced and refrigerated for convenience – so easy! As this iced matcha latte is sweetened to taste and loaded with healthy fats, it helps curb cravings without the caffeine crash and is perfect as an afternoon go-to.
