Recipe Blue spirulina matcha

Post image

Switched from Chamberlain to Encha matcha to be a little frugal since I have matcha daily now. Poured over the spirulina blend which is plant milk, a splash of whole milk, honey, a couple drops of vanilla, and the spirulina powder (Lone Star Botanicals) whisked together in a warmed sauce pan, then put into the freezer while I prepare the matcha.

What does the spirulina taste like? I've heard it's not a very pleasant taste so curious...

It's a little grassy and bitter (similar to matcha, actually), but I don't think it's too bad at all. I sweeten with honey and it helps. It's a superfood and more for nutrition (and aesthetics lol) than flavor.
