Any matcha-holics out here? 🙋🙋🏽🙋🏻 At Numi, we love this type of stone-ground, super-potent tea that’s packed with antioxidants and all of the other benefits of green tea (read more about those here).

MCT (or medium-chain triglycerides) oil is all of the rage these days, popular for its benefits supporting your metabolism and as quick source of good energy and saturated fat (source). Paired with matcha, this is a power-packed drink!

Keto drinks

Our MCT Citrus Matcha Latte is a twist on the classic matcha latte, celebrating the vibrant citrusy notes of lemongrass and orange peel in Numi Citrus Matcha, paired with hints of spice and the healthy fat of organic MCT oil. The caffeine in this latte will give you a jitter-free boost that will last all day.

Enjoy the recipe below. In good health!

🌱 Why do grades of tea matter? The larger the leaf, the greater its surface area for steeping and the more complex the infusion. Numi uses only hand-plucked, fuller leaf quality tea for a pure taste that balances depth and nuance. Many bagged teas are machine-picked and use low-quality fannings and dust. Smaller grades release tannins more quickly, leading to a dark, bitter-tasting cup. Wake up with fuller leaf teas that steep slowly and evenly, delivering a smooth, rich flavor. When you drink our tea, you’ll immediately taste the difference. ☕️ Find our Breakfast Blend and over 40 delicious organic blends on our Amazon store. Link in bio.
