If you’re into frappuccino, try this recipe “creme de Matcha green tea frappuccino” in one of your morning routine. Why morning, well, with quite a bit amount of calories, making it breakfast would make you less likely to feel guilty about. Another plus, green tea does make you feel more awake and mind ready for the whole day.
Honestly, I passed by Starbucks a couple times, and happen to have this drink. You know, the feel of an oriental taste combined with sweet cream, milk and little hint of vanilla linger on my mind after that. Hence, this is my version of the drink.
Instead of the sugar, I used sweetened condensed milk, to add more to the creamy taste while helping with the bitter taste of Matcha. Heavy cream is there to help stabilized and making the drink smooth and thick. My little trick here is to add a couple grains of salt, this will make the drink seems sweeter than it actually is and kill off any sour after-taste.
It’s a great habit to chill any cold drinks ingredients before mixing. So make sure yours are cold before hand. If you like them more runny, replace the heavy cream for extra milk or crushed ice.
This recipe yield 2 cups serving size. If you’re crazed of matcha, add an extra tsp will bring out the flavor more.
