What to know about matcha latte
A matcha latte is caffeine plus dairy, which is why it can trigger two very different sensitivities. Because you drink the whole powdered leaf, matcha delivers a real caffeine dose, around 55 to 65 mg per serving, less than a cup of drip coffee but far from decaf, and its L-theanine gives a calmer lift rather than a jittery spike. The milk then makes a standard cafe matcha latte high in lactose and high in dairy protein, so the milk, not the matcha, is what makes it high FODMAP.
Watch for
- High in caffeine because you consume the whole leaf, roughly 55 to 65 mg per serving, so it is not a good pick if caffeine keeps you up or raises your heart rate
- High in lactose from the milk, a frequent cause of bloating for the lactose intolerant
- High in dairy protein, a problem if you react to casein or whey
- High FODMAP from the milk rather than the matcha, so a dairy-free milk lowers the load considerably
