I needed a pick me up this afternoon and my stash at work only has herbal tea…that wasn’t going to work. So I hopped on over to the campus bistro thing and got this. As it steeped I swear it smelled like fruit loops…yes the cereal. After the first sip I knew I needed to doctor this up with some sweetener and skim milk. I usually don’t add much of anything to my teas, but this needed it in a big way.
Thankfully we’ll be passing a real Starbucks tonight where I can get a Green Tea Latte mmm…

Have you tried a GTL (not the “Jersey Shores” version lol) w/ mocha and peppermint syrups? Sooo good! I often add white mocha and vanilla as well. No classic for me.
I get the GTL with vanilla and soy…SO good!
That would be too sweet for me. I can feel my teeth rotting just thinking about it lol.
It isn’t as sweet as you might imagine. I can still really taste the green tea of it too.
I’ve tried it before, so yeah I can imagine. Although that was also back in the day when they put melon syrup in it (I just didn’t know it).
Have you had it iced? That’s how I have them and the ice helps to cut all that sweet.
No. I just don’t like matcha cold unless it’s in juice or lemonade. And I’ve learned I do not like it w/ just plain milk (vanilla isn’t extremely flavored so I still consider that plain lol)- only w/ the addition of chocolate which actually cuts the sweetness.
See I’ve never had it hot. So I’ll have to try that the next time we stop at a Starbucks or when the matcha I ordered arrives.
