Tucked inside the Mitsuwa Marketplace, this little dessert shop is giving matcha the attention it deserves. While it serves matcha in almost every form possible, Matcha Love’s claim to fame is its soft serve ice cream. The incredibly smooth blend strikes the perfect balance between sweet and herbaceous.

For those looking experiment with more matcha mash-ups, look no further than Sweet Lab in Carrollton’s Koreatown. Matcha-infused bubble waffles are wrapped around tangy matcha ice cream, and the whole concoction is finished off with sweetened condensed milk and two matcha Pocky sticks.

The Thai people invented rolled ice cream, but its influence certainly hasn’t stopped there. I.CE.NY is making sure of that with its Matcha Mania rolled ice cream, along with a totally customizable menu that offers diners a range of matcha options. Crushed, mashed, and smoothed out matcha ice cream is made while customers wait, and to take it to the next level, the shop pairs tops the treat with red beans, Pocky, and mochi.

It makes sense that a cafe this cute would serve up matcha in plenty of adorable ways. The bakery offers traditional hot or cold matcha tea, along with boba and smoothies — but its claim to fame is the rotating assortment of matcha pastries like Swiss rolls, fluffy Japanese style cheesecakes, and macaroons. Frequent visits are recommended to try its latest and greatest matcha creations.

Diners can find baos all over North Texas nowadays from Plano, to Downtown Dallas, and everywhere in between. Sumo Shack is taking the little steamed buns to the next level by deep frying and filling them with bright green matcha ice cream goodness. It’s something like an ice-cream filled sopapilla or fresh yeast donut, and the sweet treat is a perfect finish to Sumo Shack’s long list of Asian-inspired eats.

Val’s Cheesecakes has a matcha green tea cheesecake that’s only available during select times of the year, making this matcha treat extra elusive. Made in small batches, the cheesecake has a pleasant and delicate tea flavor paired with Val’s rich custardy base and buttery crust.  

Finding matcha alongside coffee options is nothing new. Blending the two takes caffeine-lovers addiction to new heights. Magnolia Sous La Pont starts with a traditional latte, then whips matcha powder into the steamed milk for a drink that zings between a traditional brew and a steaming hot cup of tea. And for that, the matcha latte has earned its spot as one of the most extravagant, bold, and complex drinks in all of Dallas.

Between the smoky grill and the succulent pieces of meat at this Japanese barbecue joint, one is bound to work up thirst. Niwa ups the ante of traditional cocktails with matcha-infused blends made with lemonade and culinary-grade matcha powder. The mixture emanates a vivid green hue and a floral kick found nowhere else in nature.
