We tried to get the consistency of this beverage close to that of the frozen milk teas served in Taiwanese-inspired boba tea shops. It’s more like a slushie than a smoothie or milkshake, and is only mildly sweet. The recipe makes enough blender-ready frozen matcha cubes for seven 1-cup servings, so you can whip up a slushie in seconds anytime the mood strikes.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbs. matcha tea powder
- 2 cups soymilk or almond milk, plus ¼ cup more for each slushie
- 1/3 cup agave nectar
