Notes
Adjust the matcha strength to your preference—use ½ teaspoon for a lighter flavor and up to 1 teaspoon for a more intense taste.
For a dairy-free option, swap Fairlife skim milk with your favorite plant-based milk like almond, oat, or coconut milk.
Sweeten the drink further with additional sugar-free vanilla syrup or a natural sweetener of your choice.
