Enjoy this holiday season with a Matcha Latte Christmas Cocktail
Matcha Latte with Bailey’s Irish Cream is not just the perfect Christmas Cocktail, it’s the ideal holiday drink throughout the festive season. Providing a calm but energising experience, this creamy Matcha Latte is best imbibed in late afternoon.
Cozy up with friends and family or a fun game or movie and life is good, who needs to go outside? If Christmas is a warm weather event in your area, make it an Iced Matcha Latte with Baileys by using cold water and plant-based milk and adding ice cubes, it’s equally yummy and delicious!
