Somatcha sets itself apart from the many creamy matcha latte drinks that are available as a matcha beverage that's canned and sparkling. The sparkling matcha drinks include ingredients like liquid chlorophyll, green tea matcha powder, green tea and gray sea salt and are offered in two varieties—a sugar-sweetened Original and a Zero Calorie option with a hint of sweetness from monk fruit.
While the low-sugar Original variety shares just 12 grams of sugar and 50 calories, the Zero Calorie alternative will suit those who are looking to avoid sugar altogether.
These refreshing matcha beverages are described as being mellow and grassy, and will appeal to consumers who are familiar with the health benefits of green tea or matcha and are open to a different drinking experience using these ingredients.
