Why This Iced Mushroom Matcha Recipe Is Worth Trying

 

This drink offers a lighter, more balanced approach to energy and focus, utilising the many benefits of Japanese matcha. It’s made with ingredients chosen for how they support your system, not just for their stimulating properties.

Vitamin B Complex
A blend of essential B vitamins—including B1, B2, B3, B6, B12 and folate—which help convert food into energy and support your nervous system. They’re especially useful if you’re shifting away from high-stimulation drinks and want to avoid dips in mental energy.

 

Combined, these ingredients make this iced matcha more than just refreshing—it’s a considered choice for everyday focus and hydration.

 

 

Tips for Making the Best Iced Matcha

  • Use cold or room temperature milk to avoid diluting the flavour with melting ice
  • Add oat or almond milk for a natural sweetness that complements the matcha
  • Whisk well to ensure the matcha dissolves fully—it improves the taste and texture
  • Prep a batch ahead of time to store in the fridge for the next day
  • Make it a dirty matcha by adding a shot of espresso, if you want a bit more of a lift
