Review: I tried Greggs new matcha latte - and it lived up to the hype

• Greggs has introduced a brand-new iced matcha latte range
• The range includes three flavours
• I tried the Strawberry Iced Matcha and absolutely loved it

Iconic bakery chain Greggs launched an iced matcha latte range on Thursday, February 5 - and I tried one of the new flavours.

Greggs introduced a trio of flavours to its range, which included; the Iced Matcha Latte, Vanilla Matcha Latte, and Strawberry Matcha Latte.

I purchased the Strawberry Matcha Latte as I absolutely love anything Strawberry flavoured, so it was an obvious choice for me to choose.

I’ve only tried matcha once before and I really enjoyed it, but for some reason I haven’t had it since.

However, Greggs is one of my absolute favourite places to grab a drink or snack (especially as a North East lass), so I was super excited to try its take on it.

Well it was absolutely wonderful and it has definitely made me an iced matcha latte fan. While I haven’t tried the classic or vanilla flavours, I found the strawberry to be creamy, refreshing and sweet.

I can definitely say that I will be purchasing this drink again, and I hope Greggs makes it a permanent menu item.

It is worth mentioning that although I really enjoyed the drink, I was a little surprised to see an iced drink range being launched in February.

However, Greggs has celebrated the launch with exclusive pilates sessions held in London, making it more of a ‘post-workout’ beverage - which makes sense. But I would definitely enjoy sipping on this during the warmer months.

Greggs’ iced matcha latte range is available to purchase now, with prices starting from £3.
