This Matcha Green Tea Latte can be made to be refined-sugar-free, low carb, Paleo, gluten-free, dairy-free (if you use non-dairy milk, such as soy milk, cashew milk, coconut milk oat milk, etc.).
What Can I Sweeten this Matcha Green Tea Latte With?
I call for granulated white sugar (organic, if possible) but you can use honey (refined sugar-free option), agave syrup (vegan option), or even maple syrup (vegan option).
