Laird Superfood, Inc., a leader in functional coffee, creamers and superfood products made with simple, minimally processed ingredients, announced the launch of Protein Matcha, a new line of instant iced matcha latte mixes made with milk protein.

Available in Original, Strawberry or Lavender, Laird Superfood Protein Matcha contains 10g of protein per serving and expands the company's growing dairy-based protein platform following the introduction of Protein Coffee earlier this year.

The premium matcha green tea contains 70mg of caffeine per serving for Original and Lavender, and 90mg per serving for Strawberry. It also contains lion's mane mushroom, traditionally used for cognitive support, coconut water powder and sea salt for natural electrolytes and hydration.

Protein Matcha is available at LairdSuperfood.com for $18 and will be available on Amazon at a later date.

Protein Matcha is designed to be enjoyed cold. Simply add 1/3 cup of powder to cold water or milk, froth or shake and add ice.

Laird Superfood Matcha Instant Latte with Adaptogens, the company's vegan matcha offering including coconut milk powder, will continue to be available. This drink is made using hot water.

KEYWORDS: Caffeine electrolytes lion's mane matcha mushrooms
