Frequently Asked Questions About Matcha milkshake
How do you make a matcha milkshake?
Blend matcha powder with milk and ice cream until smooth, then serve the matcha milkshake cold. For a less lumpy drink, whisk the matcha with a small splash of milk first and then blend it with the remaining ingredients.
What does a matcha milkshake taste like?
A matcha milkshake tastes creamy and sweet, with matcha’s grassy, slightly bitter green-tea flavor underneath. The amount and type of matcha affect how pronounced that earthy flavor is.
Does a matcha milkshake have caffeine?
Yes, a matcha milkshake contains caffeine from the matcha green tea powder. The amount varies with the recipe and the quantity of matcha used, so it may affect sleep if you are sensitive to caffeine and drink it late.
What is the difference between a matcha milkshake and a matcha latte?
A matcha milkshake is typically blended with ice cream for a thick, dessert-like texture, while a matcha latte is matcha mixed with milk and is usually served without ice cream. The milkshake is generally sweeter and richer.
Why is my matcha milkshake lumpy?
Matcha powder can clump when it is added straight to cold milk because it does not dissolve easily. Sift the powder or whisk it with a little warm water or milk before blending it into the matcha milkshake.
Can you make a matcha milkshake without ice cream?
Yes, you can make a matcha milkshake without ice cream, though it will be less rich and may have a thinner texture. Blend matcha with milk and ice; a banana can add body and sweetness if you want.
What kind of matcha is best for a matcha milkshake?
Culinary-grade matcha works well in a matcha milkshake because the milk and ice cream soften its stronger flavor. Ceremonial-grade matcha also works, but it is not necessary for this blended drink.
How long does a matcha milkshake last in the fridge?
A matcha milkshake is best made and drunk right away because the ice cream melts and the mixture can separate. If you need to hold it briefly, keep it covered in the refrigerator and blend or stir it again before serving.
Is a matcha milkshake healthy?
A matcha milkshake can provide matcha’s tea compounds, but ice cream and added sweeteners make it more like a dessert than plain tea. A homemade version lets you control the sweetness and how much ice cream you use.
Can children drink a matcha milkshake?
Children can have a matcha milkshake occasionally, but it contains caffeine from the matcha. Keep the serving small and avoid offering it close to bedtime; a caffeine-free milkshake is a better everyday choice.

What is Matcha milkshake?
A matcha milkshake blends matcha—a finely ground Japanese green tea—with milk and ice cream. It is a modern café-style drink, rather than a traditional way of serving matcha in Japan. The tea’s gently grassy, slightly bitter flavour cuts through the milkshake’s sweetness, while the ice cream gives it a thick, creamy texture. It is usually served cold as a café treat or dessert drink; matcha fans may also make it at home for a refreshing afternoon pick-me-up. It provides some protein from the milk, but is more of a sweet drink than a substantial snack. For a lighter version, use less ice cream and unsweetened matcha.
