This dairy free latte contains healthy fats from the coconut milk and oil, as well as a touch of sweetness from the raw, local honey, which balances the bitter properties of the matcha out nicely.
As a warning, there are many brands out there that aren’t pure matcha and have other ingredients and sugar added to them. My brand of choice is DoMatcha .

1/2 cup light coconut milk
1/2 cup hot water
