As the weather is getting nice and warm I decided to take out my pop maker and create a healthy tropical pop with some matcha in it.
I love matcha because of the many health benefits. It is high in antioxidant, helps with your complexion and is said to be a metabolism booster. I have tried green tea matcha so I was super curious when I got to try the White Matcha from Red Leaf Tea. White Matcha is a lot milder in taste and has sort of a floral taste. If you don't like the grassy-ness strong taste of green matcha you may like the taste of the White Matcha better.
Pineapple Coconut Matcha Yogurt Pops
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tsp White Matcha
- 1 cup almond coconut milk (you can also use coconut milk)
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup pineapple
- 1 tblsp coconut oil
- 6 drops of liquid Stevia (you can also use honey or agave nectar to your taste)
- Boil water. Place matcha into a mug and pour boiling water over and mix well.
- Place all of the ingredients into a small blender and blend until smooth.
- Carefully pour into pop maker and freeze.
Makes 8 pops.

You can also use the white matcha in a yummy latte! Just boil 1/4 cup of water. Add 1 tsp of white match to a mug. Pour water over. Heat up some almond milk and pour into mug with matcha water. Stir and enjoy.

ReplyDeleteI was thinking about purchasing Matcha. Do it really boost your energy?
ReplyDeleteI haven't noticed a huge boost in energy while drinking it. I do feel less hungry and tend to lose more weight when I do drink it.

ReplyDeleteThese look good! It's kind of funny that you're using matcha, I hadn't heard of it until yesterday but this is the third recipe I've seen that uses it. Guess I'll have to run out and buy some!
ReplyDeleteI'd never have thought of putting tea in a lolly. Seems strange to me, but then I'm not a tea drinker.
ReplyDeleteThose pops look delightful! I like the texture they have and of course how healthy they are.
