Healthy Thin Mint Matcha Latte

 (Starbucks Copycat Recipe)

I.  Craving a Starbucks Thin Mint Latte Without the    Sugar Crash?

Love that chocolate-mint combo but not the syrupy overload? This better-for-you Thin Mint Matcha Latte recipe is inspired by Starbucks’ Secret Menu—but it’s made with functional superfoods, calm energy, and zero compromise.

It’s cozy, chocolatey, and refreshingly minty, but without the blood sugar spike. We used Eleven TLC’s Lavender Minty Matcha—a blend crafted to energize the mind and calm the nervous system.
