It's hard to miss matcha lattes inParisian cafés and coffee shops . ThisJapanese drink, made from matcha green tea powder whisked into hot or cold milk, has established itself as a chic and healthy alternative to cappuccino and traditional lattes. A real must-try, matcha lattes are as appealing for their bright color as they are for their energizing properties.
Made from finely ground young tea leaves, matcha is known for its high antioxidant content and its ability to provide steady energy without the spikes associated with caffeine. In latte form, it is available with cow's milk, but also with plant-based milk (oat, almond, soy), which softens its slight natural bitterness.
Its bright green color attracts both lovers of beautiful drinks and natural health enthusiasts. Often slightly sweet, matcha latte can also be served pure for discerning palates! In Paris, it can be found in specialty coffee shops, Japanese tea rooms, and even in some contemporary pastry shops.
More than just a trendy drink, matcha latte offers a comforting break, a touch of gentle exoticism, and a little pleasure to sip throughout the day. Here are the best places in Paris!
