Teahouse Matcha Popsicles

Need a little refreshing pick-me-up? These pretty, bright green matcha popsicles deliver in the easiest way possible—once frozen you can grab and go anytime. These cold treats are creamy and not too sweet thanks to coconut milk, a couple of dates and a just-ripe banana. Because the banana isn’t overly ripe it’s flavor does’t overpower the delicate grassy notes of the ceremonial grade matcha. Be ready to make another batch as they have a habit of disappearing from the freezer fast!

Teahouse Matcha

Our top grade of organic matcha is made from the first springtime harvest of tencha, savored for its umami sweetness, creamy taste and enlivening energy. Prepare Teahouse Matcha in the traditional, ceremonial manner called Cha No Yu using a tea bowl and a bamboo tea whisk.

Ingredients

  • 1 (13.5 FL OZ) can full fat unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1 cup plain almond milk, preferably homemade
  • 5 teaspoons Rishi Tea and Botanicals Tea House Matcha
  • 2 medjule dates, pitted
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • Pinch sea salt
  • 1 just-ripe banana, peeled and broken into pieces

Preparation

Step 1
Add coconut milk, almond milk, matcha, dates, vanilla and salt to an upright blender and blend until completely smooth. If your ingredients are on the cool side the mixture may separate, keep blending until the mixture warms slightly and is a uniform green.
Step 2
Add the banana and blend again until creamy. Divide mixture between popsicle molds, add sticks and freeze overnight or until completely hard.
Step 3
When ready to serve, dip popsicle mould into hot water for 5 to 10 seconds and gently pull on stick to release from moulds. Enjoy immediately.
