Why drink matcha in summer?
Matcha is an excellent alternative to coffee: it contains caffeine, but slow-release, thanks to L-theanine, an amino acid that promotes concentration without causing jitters. Additionally, it is rich in antioxidants, helps speed up metabolism, and has anti-inflammatory properties. Drinking it cold is not only refreshing but also maintains all its benefits.

How to prepare Ice Matcha Mango step by step
💡 Important tip: to get a smooth, lump-free matcha, it's key to sift it before mixing it with hot water.
Sift the matcha into a bowl to break up any clumps.
Add the hot water (without boiling) and whisk with a chasen until it is well dissolved and frothy.
In a large glass, add ice and the crushed fresh mango.
Pour in the oat milk, creating a creamy base.
Finally, add the matcha.
You can stir before drinking, or enjoy it in layers.
