Despite some information you may hear, caffeine and coffee, in general, do not raise the risk for hypertension (high blood pressure). Several studies have shown that consumption of up to 4 cups of coffee has no effect on hypertension, so if you’re a coffee drinker, you don’t have to worry.

If you don’t care for coffee, however, or you’re looking for a refreshing new way to get your morning caffeine, an iced matcha green tea latte may be the answer. Matcha is a powdered form of green tea that you mix directly into a liquid without steeping, so you get the benefit of consuming the whole tea leaf, including a much higher dosage of catechins, which are potent antioxidants, than regular green tea.

This iced matcha green tea latte is made with just 3 simple ingredients and is a refreshing and nutritious drink that you can whip up in just a minute. You can customize it with your favorite type of milk or sweetener for a delicious, antioxidant-filled summer drink.
