Our ready‑to‑drink matcha oat lattes are delicious straight from the bottle, but they’re also a versatile ingredient for healthy snacks and desserts. Matcha is rich in catechins and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), powerful antioxidants that neutralise free radicals and may reduce cell damage[1]. Observational studies associate green tea consumption with lower risk of liver disease, improved heart health and weight management[1]. By incorporating House of Matcha lattes into recipes, you can enjoy these benefits in creative ways.
1 Matcha smoothie bowl
Blend one bottle of our latte with a frozen banana, a handful of spinach and 1–2 tablespoons of chia or flax seeds. This combination supplies fibre, plant‑based protein and omega‑3s. Pour into a bowl and add toppings such as granola, berries, kiwi, sliced almonds and a drizzle of honey or tahini. The antioxidants in matcha work synergistically with the vitamins in fruit to support immune function.
2 Iced cinnamon matcha latte
For a refreshing twist, shake a chilled latte with a pinch of ground cinnamon, a dash of vanilla extract and ice. Cinnamon may help regulate blood sugar, making this drink ideal for a midday pick‑me‑up. Serve in a tall glass garnished with a cinnamon stick or orange twist for extra aroma.
3 Matcha chia pudding
Combine one bottle of latte with 4 tablespoons of chia seeds, 1 teaspoon of pure maple syrup and a splash of vanilla. Stir, refrigerate for at least an hour (or overnight), then top with coconut flakes and passion fruit. Chia seeds provide soluble fibre and plant‑based omega‑3s, while matcha delivers antioxidants and a gentle caffeine boost.
4 Protein‑packed matcha energy bites
In a bowl, mix 1 cup of rolled oats, 1/2 cup of almond butter, 1/4 cup of hemp seeds and 1/4 cup of shredded coconut. Gradually add your matcha latte until the mixture forms a pliable dough. Roll into bite‑sized balls and refrigerate. These energy bites supply protein, healthy fats, fibre and the metabolism‑boosting catechins of matcha[1].
5 Matcha overnight oats
Prepare a jar with 1/2 cup of rolled oats, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, a handful of chopped dates or sultanas and enough matcha latte to cover the mixture. Refrigerate overnight. In the morning, stir and top with sliced banana and a sprinkle of toasted macadamia nuts. This make‑ahead breakfast is rich in fibre and antioxidants, keeping you full and energised.
6 Frozen matcha‑coconut popsicles
Mix one bottle of latte with 1/2 cup of coconut milk, a teaspoon of honey and a squeeze of lime. Pour into popsicle moulds and freeze. The combination of matcha and coconut provides antioxidants and healthy fats, making this a satisfying warm‑weather treat.
7 Local flavour variations
Australia offers a bounty of native ingredients that pair beautifully with matcha. Try adding wattleseed to your energy bites for a nutty, coffee‑like flavour, or top your smoothie bowl with sliced mango, passion fruit and macadamia nuts. These local additions not only taste delicious but also showcase the versatility of matcha in an Australian context.
