This collagen matcha latte recipe is made with only 4 ingredients in 5 minutes! It’s a low calorie, high protein drink!
Usually around 2 pm after a day of homeschool, grocery shopping, playing and cooking I usually need a pick-me-up.
This collagen matcha latte is a go-to for me on the afternoons when I need some fuel to get me through the afternoon slump. Also try my classic matcha latte recipe and my chai latte.
It’s low-calorie, high-protein, and easy to make with 4 ingredients in 3 minutes. And of course it’s delicious, and the matcha provides a little dose of caffeine for an afternoon energy boost!
Collagen Matcha Latte Recipe Nutritional Information:
I love that this healthy matcha latte is nutritious! Here is the nutritional information for this recipe based on using unsweetened almond/coconut blend for the non-dairy milk & 2 scoops of collagen powder.
- 160 calories
- 18 g protein
- 20 g collagen
- 34 mg caffeine (about the same as ⅓ cup of coffee)
This collagen matcha latte promotes healthy digestion & gut health, improves muscle recovery, and gives your hair, skin and nails a beauty boost! Plus it’s packed with antioxidants, increases metabolism and boosts immunity.
Collagen Matcha Latte Recipe: Substitutions
- Milk: My favorite option for this recipe is a coconut/almond milk blend. It keeps the drink low-calorie but the coconut milk imparts a rich and delicious flavor. Almond milk, coconut milk, whole milk, and 2% milk are all great choices.
- Honey. Raw honey is my favorite way to sweeten this drink, maple syrup is great too. Or you can omit the sweetener if you don’t prefer sweet drinks.
- Collagen powder. I use this organic collagen in my smoothies, coffee, etc. for extra protein daily. This collagen matcha latte can be made with 1 or 2 scoops of collagen protein powder. I typically opt for 1 (which is about 2 Tablespoons). The powder is flavorless so the amount does not impact the taste. The only thing that changes is the frothiness. If you use 2 scoops your latte will be very frothy.
- Matcha powder. I suggest using high-quality, organic matcha powder for the best results.
How to Make a Matcha Latte
To make this recipe, pour the ingredients into a Vitamix, blend for two minutes and serve.
You can also make it on the stovetop if you prefer. Just whisk the ingredients together in a saucepan and cook over medium heat and until warm, then serve.
Serve
You can serve it alone – like I prefer to do as an afternoon energy boost. Or, enjoy it with your favorite breakfast recipes.
