This recipe mixes rice milk and almond milk with granulated sugar, matcha powder, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt in a blender until smooth. Served chilled over ice and garnished with cinnamon, the drink has a creamy mouthfeel with a gentle sweetness and an aromatic spice character.
