We don't want to make any bold claims, but this Upside Down Vegan Matcha Latte might just turn your world upside down. A completely ethical and easy-to-make beverage with numerous health benefits, that also tastes delicious, what more could you ask for?

It produces a light, fresh non-dairy whip that gives you all the luxuriousness of whipped cream without the heavy calories and dairy-packed peaks.
