INGREDIENT NOTES:
UNSWEETENED ALMOND MILK:
- This milk mixes well with matcha and gives your drink a good flavor. Almond milk also reduces the amount of sugar in your drink. Utilize macadamia milk or unsweetened coconut milk instead. Do not use sweet milk to avoid carbs.
MATCHA GREEN TEA POWDER:
- Matcha provides the natural taste and color to your drink. It is good to choose culinary-grade or ceremonial matcha. Use brewed green tea in case you do not have matcha, but it will reduce the creamy flavor of your drink.
POWDERED ERYTHRITOL:
- Using erythritol in powder form in your drink will give your drink a sweet flavor. Do not add sugar for sweetness. Because it is in powder form, it mixes easily in your drink mixture. You can utilize stevia or monk fruit sweetener instead.
HEAVY CREAM:
- To give your drink a creamy flavor, include heavy cream. It will also give a good form to your tea, like the bubble tea in a cafe. You can add cream according to your taste. Utilize full-fat coconut cream instead.
VANILLA EXTRACT:
- Add taste and a good smell to your drink. Adding vanilla extract will improve the taste of tea.
KETO GELATIN CUBES:
- Use these cubes instead of tapioca pearls. Gelatin cubes will manage your carbs and provide a chewy form. Use a keto sweetener and unflavored gelatin to make this tea. You can use chia seed gel instead.
