I saw something very similar to this at Trader Joe’s. I considered buying some to compare with this mix, but then I read the nutrition label and totally changed my mind. It had 10+ ingredients, loads of chemicals, and a whole lot of fat. So yeah, that didn’t happen. But of course I ended up thinking about this mix all the way home.
I decided to try it with cold rice milk this time. It turned out ok, but too sweet. This is much better hot. For dessert or a leisurely weekend breakfast. Somehow I can’t see this or any matcha as a regular breakfast drink. It’s just too thick and sweet for that.
After a bad experience with the Eggnog matchachinno, I was happy to find that the caramel flavor is the completely opposite.
Although a bit on the sweet side, this mix is smooth, rich, and extremely flavorful. Made as an iced latte with light cream (no added sweetness!) this was a great after-dinner dessert. I’ve also used this blend to make flavored mochi and they came out great!
My one criticism is that it IS very sweet, so if anybody is sensitive to a lot of sweetness, be wary! It still tastes pretty good on its own without anything added but it really shines as a frothed, milky treat.

Backlog from last week from when I worked a super long shift and was still not used to everything Disney! This is such a quick tea bc I’m lazy haha. I literally just measure like a tablespoon of this into my timolino and pour cold vanilla almond milk on top and just shake it as much as I want all day long! I love this tea tons :)
Does adding milk and shaking only work with the “matchaccino” blends? I know next to nothing about matcha but I think it would be a wonderful thing to start my mornings off with or have when I need a boost in the afternoons.
I use regular matcha in almond milk with a bit of chocolate stevia or hazelnut stevia. Awesome! I think the difference between matcha and matchaccino is sugar.
Thanks! I don’t think I have the space to buy the utensils to make matcha the traditional way but I LOVE the idea of adding some almond milk, shaking, and heading out the door.
I read a thing from Red Leaf that they put something in their matchaccinos that helps it froth more. And you need to use nearly 3times as much matcha!
In my head, I feel like the shaking bit would froth it up a bit, while if I did it with regular matcha it’d stay flat.
My brain just has weird logic, that’s all ahha
Thanks :)
This was my first real experience with matcha. I didn’t really know what to expect. I opened it up and got a pleasant smell of caramel and the fresh fragrance of green tea. It dissolved quickly and nicely into the warmed milk as per the instructions and didn’t leave any sort of chalky taste that i would have expected from a powder. Defintiely has peaked my interest toward other matcha powders. Not an everyday thing definitely a treat, but a great tasting one at that:)
Flavors: Caramel, Grass
This one comes pre-sweetened, so the others you try, you’ll want to add something to. Glad you liked it though – matcha is an addiction for me. :)
I enjoy my matcha as a cold latte. I use the little Nutri bullet blender. Cold milk, a dash of ice. Comes out with a nice froth. Yum!!!
I was nervous to try this as I’m not a big fan of green tea but Courtney swears Matcha is delicious so I decided to give it a try. I blended the suggested scoop with 1 cup of almond milk plus 1 cup of ice… and zomg, it’s delicious! This will be my go-to frozen summer drink. :-) It’s creamy and sweet but not cloyingly sweet which makes it a perfect alternative to the sugar loaded frappes I sometimes crave.
Hehe. It’s also delicious in heated milk. Stephanie was the genius who thought up microwaving a mug of milk for just over 1 minute and whisking the matcha in. It works so well for certain ones. This was one of them, of course. :P
Well then, I better cover all of my bases by trying it warm tomorrow. I’m also going to see if I can infuse it in my whip cream maker… matcha with matcha whip cream. :D Have you tried the caramel popcorn yet? I’ll browse your ratings later tonight to see what other ones are good.
I haven’t tried that one, but everyone else seems to rave about it. Hmm, my favourites so far are Banana & Cream, French Butter Cream, Cheesecake, and Bavarian Cream has really grown on me over time too.
**French Butter Cookie.
Mmm…all of those sound good. It would be nice if they sold a Matcha Sampler.
I agree haha. They are quite expensive. You should definitely take advantage of the free monthly matchas since you’re in the US. This month it’s cheesecake I believe, and the shipping within the US should be cheap. :)
I have yet to try matcha as well.. Just got my first sample in the mail yesterday. I know we are quite a long ways apart, but I think shipping was $2 and something for the sample. I do ok with flavored green teas, but don’t reach for them often, so I’m like you in being a little a nervous about it… thinking ground tea leaves must give a strong flavor. Sounds like it went well for you.. I’ll have to give mine a try soon!
Almost done with this for good now, since Matcha Outlet don’t stock the fun flavours any more ): drinking this hot this morning… with a spoon of coffee in it. Don’t judge me! I need the caffeine hit. My mam was pretty concerned that my coffee was green, but the resulting concoction was actually pretty great. Kind of like a caramel latte, only with a matcha aftertaste! This is too sweet for my tastes now hot, but mixed with the coffee it’s tempered a little bit though still very sweet. I’ll probably finish it off iced, which is how I prefer to drink this.
Wow, I thought caramel would stay in stock forever as popular as it was! It was a great flavor. Maybe they will bring it back as a special.
I know, me too! On their website they just have the unflavoured MATCHAccino now. I hope you’re right about that!
Yeah, this was a good one. I’m still clinging to my last pouch… might have some tomorrow making a pineapple/coconut smoothie
Ooooh that sounds divine!
I won this in a contest. I actually chose this over a trip to an international tea estate, but you know what? I’m so glad I did. This stuff is AMAZING! It comes in a pouch with a scoop. Add 1 scoop to 8 oz of warm milk and blend. I put it in my latte maker and am so impressed, I could drink this everyday. It’s frothy, a beautiful green matcha color and tastes incredible with slightest hint of caramel. I can also taste the matcha. This is going to have a permanent place in my tea cabinet!
It’s definitely sweet. I had it for breakfast last week and regretted it
Yeah, it reminds me of a milkshake.
