Dairy or non, I feel like mixing it with hot water first helps the flavor bloom. Milk will always mellow out the flavor so giving it a chance to develop with hot water I feel like leaves you with a better final product. For milks I like dairy or oat milk. 😋
Mixing straight into milk is fine if you use enough; mixing into a small amount of water basically turns it into a concentrate. It just depends on the result you're after!
The complexation of casein and polyphenols doesn't necessarily mean that the complexes don't break up during digestion. Instead, the complexation can slow down the metabolism of polyphenols, leading to a more sustained release into the bloodstream. This slowed metabolism might have beneficial effects, such as prolonged antioxidant activity and improved bioavailability.
It binds with caseine, which is then degraded by enzymes in your gut releasing the polyphenol. Mixing with dairy will not impact the bioavailability of antioxidants, and might even improve their effects by allowing them to release into your body more gradually.
@velvetcigarettes8173 casein is a typical milk protein that our bodies have no problem fully degrading into smaller peptides and amino acids. Your body does not absorb casein protein whole, it must be broken down to be used as a resource by the body. If the casein binds to polyphenols, and then the casein no longer exists, you only need your intuition to understand what would then happen to the previously bound polyphenol. I didn’t use a source for this; if I searched for data what I’d really be looking for is some recognized evidence that milk reduces use effect of antioxidant polyphenols because that sounds like something someone made up. While I admit that I’m just going with my “gut” here, I do have a degree in biochemistry. However I don’t claim to have specific knowledge about this one reaction/bodily process.

Amino acids are protein- drinking a plant milk that naturally has protein, like soy, or one that has it added after the fact, would presumably accomplish the same thing. Or just, like, have a snack with your matcha, some nuts or something
It could also result in greater GI tract healing benefits because the polyphenols are staying there longer vs rapidly absorbed into blood....like zinc bound to protein. Don't know for sure but possible
While its true the casein in dairy milk can bind to the polyphenols and theoretically reduce antioxidant absorption, I think it's a bit misleading to say that the average consumer is "missing out on health benefits" by using dairy milk. The primary health benefits tea drinkers recieve from drinking matcha aren't going to be due to antioxidants in the tea (although it probably helps due to the significant amount), but because drinking tea probably displaces the drinking of other less healthy beverages in someone's diet. If someone is super calorie or health conscious, then yea they can omit milk since milk will add some calories or "block" these antioxidants but I would be super worried if they were obsessed about the 100 or so calories adding a cup of milk would add or the antioxidants they would lose out on Based on my skimming of a couple of articles, it also seems that a lot of literature hasn't been able to agree if combining dairy milk with antioxidant rich foods (so tea but including other food/drinks) does limit absorption. I do understand this is a 10 second video, so there's not a whole lot of time to include every single detail, such as the inconclusive opinion about dairy milk and antioxidants. I do like your content, but felt the need to let you know since bioavailability was one of the main points of the video.

“drinking tea displaces less healthy beverages” … like dairy milk, which increases LDL cholesterol and causes digestive problems, acne, and possibly several different cancers.

@@kelsey2333 I disagree. I find it much healthier than dairy milk. It makes me feel full, it tastes good, and it doesn't make my body feel bad.

My favorite and go to plant milk is coconut with oat milk! Creamy, taste and goes well with basically anything! And they're homemade always. The one I like from box is the soy one
I’m glad there’s a scientific reason as to why my matcha tastes so different when I use dairy milk vs almond. With dairy it’s not as strong and just tastes weird. But with almond milk it’s so amazing
isnt it just about mixing beforehand? thats what i got from the video. matcha to me tastes the same with dairy milk and non dairy but i have always mixed it with water beforehand
Chemist here. The casein breaks down polyphenols which your body may struggle to to to incorporate it into the gut. It's also likely to pull free-radicals from your gut to reduce the variability of dietary effects on polyphenol absorption.
seeing as the only antioxidant, in the true sense of the word, we can use is cholesterol, which we can get from good animal fats...mixing with regular whole milk or heavy cream is the best option to make sure the chemicals and toxins from the green tea dont cause too many problems.
Thank you for this clip. I needed this. I skip the adding with water bc I thought the mild was just fine. And yes I do see a lot of the time the matcha clumps up. & I am thinking what am I doing wrong here!?? A lot of videos don’t explain why I need the water so I didn’t use it but this video breaks it down to better understand!!! Thank you so much! I didn’t want to give up on making my own matcha!
Do you have a source for this info? I haven't done a deep dive on it personally but a cursory glance shows studies about using milk protein to make polyphenols more bioavailable, like others in the comments mentioned. Even if casein does bind polyphenols, wouldnt it be released again when you digest the casein? And how could dissolving it in water before adding milk prevent it from binding with the casein, which it will have plenty of opportunity to interact with once you add the milk?
I usually go with oat milk for coffee, but with matcha I tend to love rice milk the best. Its the only thing I use rice milk for cause its so light and slightly sweet. But for a more creamy end product always oat
I’m sure the cows that are being exploited and having they’re babies ripped away from them have an issue with it and the boy calves who are killed because they’re not profitable. Additionally milk is fortified with vitamin d and in some places it’s the law to fortify vitamin d into it. So just supplement it yourself 🤷♀️
I would love to use plant milks but I can't find any without a gazillion chemical additives and thickeners. But I usually whisk with water so I'm sure it's better than otherwise. Milk is so good with matcha too!
Plant milks are really easy to make at home if you have a blender. For oat milk just blend one part oats to about three parts water and strain it! 😊 That way you can also add whatever flavourings you want, like salt, maple syrup, etc., or nothing at all.
Unfortunately plant based milks are really not a healthy alternative to milk. Especially if you can tolerate dairy or A2 dairy. If you’re making plant based milks at home you’re avoiding the nasty additives they put into those milks, but your also missing out on all the vitamins they fortify those milks with to make them healthy like calcium, iodine, b-vitamins, vitamin A, phosphorus, and zinc. So you’re left with something low in nutrition and protein and extremely high in oxalates. Oat milk in particular has 4g of oxalates per cup!! Oxalates bind to minerals like calcium and prevent the body from absorbing beneficial nutrients! Oxalates can even cause kidney stones. I would stick to regular milk if you can it’s loaded with vitamins and protein.

@@Daniel-pb4zs I have added vanilla before, or other flavoring like raspberry or blueberry. I do enjoy it with just those three ingredients though. That’s with sweetened matcha powder btw. I don’t enjoy it so much when there’s no sugar in it 😅
I use Vanilla Almond Milk 🙏 And I use honey as my sweetener. And Ippodo brand of Matcha. It kinda expensive matcha though but it’s worth it tbh. It taste way better than cheaper matcha and the color is super super green, not to mention the powder is really smooth and the taste was phenomenal. The cheap matcha got a doodoo green color and taste like nothing 😅😂
I use dairy milk it’s rich and when frothed it is smooth and rich plus, idk about health benefits when talking about matcha lattes if I wanted health benefits I just drink it without the milk
She made up the thing about decreased bioavailability though 🙄😒. Don’t believe any “science” claim people make without multiple linked studies. Anyone can say anything.
I love matcha tea, trying to substitute it for my coffee habit. However, I can not drink that much milk. Lol I haven't tried those plant based milks but I am grateful for your knowledge and insight in this subject. Thank you for sharing.
Regular Milk is the GOAT, just think about the cheese 😢 yall gots to stop shaming my moonjuice; I appreciate this video because even tho she heavily discouraged regular milk, she still helped us non-lactoseintolerants who enjoy the superpower we have and that enjoy the deliciousness...but aside from that, plant based milk has got to be sweetened or else it just taste like dirty water, and Rice Milk is the GOAT on that side of things
Worried about not getting enough bioavailable nutrients from the matcha, due to milk - yet, absolutely no concern for the detriment plant-base “milks” cause? Boggling, yet, not surprising, this day and age. I mean, any milk that isn’t raw isn’t going to have any benefits making it worth drinking. So, this isn’t a “pro-dairy” comment, across the board. However, that does not disregard how unhealthy plant-based beverages are - and how their own anti-nutrients work against the benefit people believe they have, as well as the potential benefits of the ingredients they are combined with.
I can’t even fathom not whisking it just for the mix alone!! I only drink oat milk and the texture was completely off when I wasn’t thorough with mixing it
I've been whisking with a bit of oat milk then adding water to fill it up. GAME CHANGER! Tastes so much lighter and sweet with 1 part milk and 3 parts water :)
I add 1 tsp of ceremonial grade matcha to a bowl, add a little water, whisk with a matcha whisk to make a watery paste, then I pour silk organic unsweetened soy milk over ice, add a little vanilla bean paste and honey, then the matcha. Delicious and so creamy
Oat milk has more protein content than other dairy alternatives, which makes it easier and better to froth. Which is great but also sad bc oat milk will almost always be out of stock at the coffee shops since its more popular now. 😩 But yeah fun fact its more common than other alternatives at coffee places bc it works better when u froth it 👌🏻
I grew up drinking normal cows milk for my he store and ive recently started drinking almond and oat milks and I gotta say they taste way better than what you think!
I love almond milk more! I'm lactose intolerant, I mean in my country we do have lactose free milk but sadly It's alr mixed with sugar. Oatmilk makes me get bloated idk how but I do drink them sometimes

@@Daniel-pb4zs I have added vanilla before, or other flavoring like raspberry or blueberry. I do enjoy it with just those three ingredients though. That’s with sweetened matcha powder btw. I don’t enjoy it so much when there’s no sugar in it 😅
i like almond bc of the nutty flavor it adds
Me too! So yum
Soy and matcha is a match made in heaven
I love love love matcha lattes, when they're made right ofc. Sweet, simple, and tasty as...
😀😘🍵💚
I love to drink my matcha with vanilla oat milk😋you don’t have to add any sweetener to it then
same!!!
You dont have to add sweetener to it normally either
I use Vanilla Almond Milk 🙏 And I use honey as my sweetener. And Ippodo brand of Matcha. It kinda expensive matcha though but it’s worth it tbh. It taste way better than cheaper matcha and the color is super super green, not to mention the powder is really smooth and the taste was phenomenal. The cheap matcha got a doodoo green color and taste like nothing 😅😂
I love soy and oat mills with matcha they’re so good. The soy milk gives it this hint of sweetness that I love.
Love the cup, whered you get it?
Second
Cashew milk with matcha is the best combo underrated for sure
I use dairy milk it’s rich and when frothed it is smooth and rich plus, idk about health benefits when talking about matcha lattes if I wanted health benefits I just drink it without the milk
That is super brief and helpful I loved it. Thank you!
She made up the thing about decreased bioavailability though 🙄😒. Don’t believe any “science” claim people make without multiple linked studies. Anyone can say anything.
I’ve never tried matcha what does it taste like? ❤
it's hard to describe but i think i'd say it has fragant, chlorophyll-y, and almost grassy flavor in a pleasant way
Depends on the grade, could be grassy or bitter and like dirt
@@way9883 oh ok I should try it
@@FelineTomfoolery25 I’ll have to try it
Dirt
i love it with almond milk 😍🍵
Omg I didn’t know this!!! I just recently started drinking matcha and I love it with whole milk!! Definitely gonna try with oatmilk now thank u!!☺️
I love matcha tea, trying to substitute it for my coffee habit. However, I can not drink that much milk. Lol
I haven't tried those plant based milks but I am grateful for your knowledge and insight in this subject.
Thank you for sharing.
I LOVE my matcha with Almond milk but I will definitely try the whisking of matcha with water first.
My favourite are oat and plain dairy
Will stick with dairy. Only reason i use plant based is almond milk for lower carbs. Not much nutritional value in them otherwise. Fat isn't evil. 😁
👏🏾
Excellent! More people need to know this
Regular Milk is the GOAT, just think about the cheese 😢 yall gots to stop shaming my moonjuice; I appreciate this video because even tho she heavily discouraged regular milk, she still helped us non-lactoseintolerants who enjoy the superpower we have and that enjoy the deliciousness...but aside from that, plant based milk has got to be sweetened or else it just taste like dirty water, and Rice Milk is the GOAT on that side of things
I just watched a lady do this just last night! I never knew this tip, but it’s all good I’m a vegan so I’m dairy free. 🌰🥛
Worried about not getting enough bioavailable nutrients from the matcha, due to milk - yet, absolutely no concern for the detriment plant-base “milks” cause?
Boggling, yet, not surprising, this day and age.
I mean, any milk that isn’t raw isn’t going to have any benefits making it worth drinking. So, this isn’t a “pro-dairy” comment, across the board.
However, that does not disregard how unhealthy plant-based beverages are - and how their own anti-nutrients work against the benefit people believe they have, as well as the potential benefits of the ingredients they are combined with.
Personally I use almond milk that I made from home. I've heard it's a lot healthier, has more almonds in it and doesn't contain additives.
Real milk is the best
Get you those titi secretions
Yep.

Oat milk tastes way better than cow's milk for matcha lattes in my opinion
i've been making matcha wrong for so long now, i also use cow's milk
that was a lot of words for saying ur lactose intolerant lol
You completely missed the point-it’s not about lactose intolerance at all!
@@Veggiekins but it completely is! there is nothing wrong with being lactose intolerant, you need to learn to accept yourself
💀
I can’t even fathom not whisking it just for the mix alone!! I only drink oat milk and the texture was completely off when I wasn’t thorough with mixing it
Yup, I whisk with a bit of hot water ( not boiling) to turn the matcha powder into a paste. Then it goes into my dairy milk. Tastes fabulous.
I've been whisking with a bit of oat milk then adding water to fill it up. GAME CHANGER! Tastes so much lighter and sweet with 1 part milk and 3 parts water :)
This is how always mix mine because the hot water really smooths out that matcha powder
I love it with Almond Milk. The result is so creamy. Makes me dreamy 😊
Gorgeous video, thank you for sharing!
Coconut milk is purrrrfect ❤
Wow, thank you so much. I just received my first container of Matcha powder and I want all the good benefits from it 💫
I like vanilla oat milk in mine topped with plant base heavy cream !
Plant based milk is the wave 🌊
Oat milk and coconut are my favorites 🤤
is my recipe fine?
hot water (optional)
very small amount of matcha
pour in a cup with nestle milk
add 2 tbsp sugar
mix
I only like using Coconut milk and Dairy milk! Oat milk and Almond milk doesn’t taste good where I live because there isn’t very many options 😂
It’s a trend to drink plant milk these days , and ironically it’s double the price of dairy milk in my country
Omg thank you for the tips!!!!
I use lactaid milk as I am lactose intolerant mind you it tastes AMAZING
I love the glass you used for the matcha 😤
I've always said that i felt the soy milk brought out the matcha flavor better than dairy. I never had anyone confirm my opinion until now
I love cashew milk. It is so creamy!
I add 1 tsp of ceremonial grade matcha to a bowl, add a little water, whisk with a matcha whisk to make a watery paste, then I pour silk organic unsweetened soy milk over ice, add a little vanilla bean paste and honey, then the matcha. Delicious and so creamy
Oat milk has more protein content than other dairy alternatives, which makes it easier and better to froth. Which is great but also sad bc oat milk will almost always be out of stock at the coffee shops since its more popular now. 😩
But yeah fun fact its more common than other alternatives at coffee places bc it works better when u froth it 👌🏻
I grew up drinking normal cows milk for my he store and ive recently started drinking almond and oat milks and I gotta say they taste way better than what you think!
I love oatmilk it has the best texture and flavor and is so creamy
i didnt know that about the water. thank you
I love almond milk more! I'm lactose intolerant, I mean in my country we do have lactose free milk but sadly It's alr mixed with sugar. Oatmilk makes me get bloated idk how but I do drink them sometimes
A farmer told me "to make cows fat you feed them oats" So I'll stick to almond milk
😍 great tip, thank you!
the green drink plus the curvy cup reminds me of the kelp juice from sponge Bob
Banana milk is also rlly good
