A fushion of creamy Matcha, Pandan and coffee
Apparently, matcha latte was invented in Vancouver, Canada, at the Infuze Teahouse, sometime around 2004, as part of a partnership with the matcha manufacturer Aiya. Infuze was hoping to become the Starbucks of tea, with tea-based mixed drinks in a cool atmosphere, but instead became a matcha wholesaler in North America, and used its experience to sell matcha-based drinks to coffeeshops. Iced matcha latte became a Westcoast favorite in the US in no time.
Matcha and pandan are a match made in heaven. Our recipe gives the matcha latte a nuttier & more vanilla flavor by using Bandoeng’22 and almond milk.
