Peppermint Cocoa Matcha Latte

This festive, comforting Peppermint Cocoa Matcha Latte is a lovely way to zenergize during the hectic holiday season!

Happy holidays! It’s that magical time of year where excitement, happiness, and kindness flows freely with anticipation of the holidays. But as we all know, it can get a little hectic too.

Matcha is my go-to “magic ingredient” to relax and realign my thoughts in a calm, positive way. (My favorite way to enjoy matcha is pure whisked tea, but a comforting latte is a special treat too.)

This one has warm, festive flavors of cocoa and peppermint to zenergize your mind through the busy holiday season. Sending peace and joy to all.
