Starbucks Iced Strawberry Oat Matcha Tea Latte Review
The Starbucks Iced Strawberry Oat Matcha Tea Latte is a unique and refreshing drink that combines the earthy flavor of matcha with the sweetness of strawberries and the creaminess of oat milk. The drink is visually appealing with its vibrant green color and pinkish hue from the strawberries.
Upon first sip, the matcha flavor comes through, providing a subtle bitterness. However, the sweetness of the strawberries and the creaminess of the oat milk really balances out the drink. The texture is smooth and silky, with a light foam on top that adds to the overall richness of the drink.
However, do note that the strawberries are real strawberries but are dried. So it is missing the fresh juiciness of a real strawberry. I love the combination of matcha with strawberry so I will definitely be adding this drink to my Starbucks rotation.
