Earthy matcha, homemade strawberry sauce, cold milk, and vanilla ice cream come together in this colorful and refreshing drink. I love the contrast between the slightly bitter matcha and the sweet berries, especially when everything is shaken and poured over ice. It is part matcha latte, part ice cream float, and entirely delicious.
