This Ginger Matcha Latte is perfect for the coming of Spring. The fresh matcha mirrors the green that is popping out all around, the spicy ginger is warming during the slightly chilly mornings, and together the two make for an energizing combo. Matcha and ginger are both full of antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory properties making them a powerhouse duo for shaking off Winter and stepping into Spring on the right foot. Prepping the different recipe components takes a bit of pre-planning and time but makes enough for several servings.
