Infused Iced Matcha Latte (A Smooth Cannabis Pick-Me-Up)

Earthy, creamy, and just a little sweet, this infused iced matcha latte is a smooth way to add a gentle lift to your afternoon. It comes together in five minutes and is easy to dose per glass.

Key takeaways

  • Makes 1 serving at about 5 mg THC (adjustable).
  • ~5 minutes, no special equipment.
  • Uses a water-soluble tincture or canna-simple-syrup so it blends smoothly.

Ingredients

  • 1 tsp culinary matcha powder
  • 2 tbsp hot water (to whisk the matcha)
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 1–2 tsp honey or simple syrup, to taste
  • 5 mg water-soluble THC tincture (or canna-simple-syrup)
  • Ice

Instructions

  1. Whisk the matcha with the hot water until smooth and frothy (no lumps).
  2. Fill a glass with ice and pour in the milk.
  3. Stir the sweetener and the tincture into the matcha, then pour over the milk.
  4. Stir well before drinking so the dose is evenly distributed.

Dosing & safety

5 mg is a mild, focused dose. Drinks can take 30–90 minutes to take effect — wait before making a second. Keep it labeled and away from kids and pets. Effects and laws vary; know your local rules and tolerance. For adults 21+ where legal.

FAQ

Can I make it hot instead of iced? Yes — steam or warm the milk and skip the ice; stir the tincture in at the end.

Why water-soluble tincture? It blends into the latte without an oily layer; oil-based tinctures can separate.
