Why eat your greens when you can drink ’em?

Matcha, matcha, matcha – just saying the word itself induces inexplicable feelings of warmth, bliss, comfort and… cravings. Oh, boy, here we go again. The matcha mania has officially begun. This time, we’re bringing back a timeless Japanese favourite: the matcha latte. Creamy, rich and smooth, it’s hard to believe that this decadent beverage is only concocted with two key ingredients of matcha and milk (and maybe a bit of sugar, for the sweet tooths). But, of course, the secret lies in the divine power of the green tea powder, which enriches and lavishes the milk with a subdued bitter taste. Ah, what would we do without this life-changing drink that warms our soul on cold days and beats the heat on warm ones?

As if the matcha latte wasn’t enough, cafes have taken it upon themselves to work their barista magic conjure up stellar variations of this drink. From matcha latte floats to matcha azuki versions, the matcha latte scene in Singapore is flourishing on the creativity and talent of these eateries. We’ve picked out the 10 best spots in Singapore you can get your matcha latte fix from – the gallery awaits!
