Step aside, espresso! Meet the next-gen vibrant bev trending on your feed: matcha. Oft billed as grassy, earthy and unique, the Japanese green tea powder is having a matcha minute—and die-hard drinkers can’t get enough of the cult-favorite combo of green powder and creamy milk (plus potential syrups and flavor swirls to boot). Whether you’re matcha-curious or a full-blown devotee, here’s where to get your fix.
