Why Organic Matcha Is Not a Trend — It Is a Standard
There is matcha. And then there is organic matcha.
At 17 Rootea in Los Angeles, founder Christina Lee made a decision
from day one that was non-negotiable: every single matcha drink served at 17 Rootea
would use certified organic matcha powder — 9 grams per serving — with absolutely no pesticides, no harmful chemicals, and no compromises.
Christina spent 15 years in the medical spa and cosmetic beauty industry before opening 17 Rootea.
She understood, more than most, exactly what accumulates in the body when the wrong ingredients are consumed repeatedly.
She also understood what good ingredients — clean, bioavailable, and intentional — can do for your skin, your energy, and your overall well-being. That knowledge is the foundation of every drink at 17 Rootea, starting with the organic matcha series.
This blog post is your complete guide to the Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte collection at 17 Rootea — what makes it different, what each flavor offers, and why the Collagen Snowy topping is not just a beautiful finishing touch, but a deliberate wellness statement from a founder who has spent her career studying beauty from the inside out.
What Makes 17 Rootea's Organic Matcha Different
Certified Organic: No Pesticides, No Harmful Chemicals
Conventional matcha — even the kind sold at major coffee chains — is frequently grown using synthetic
pesticides and fertilizers.
When you drink conventional matcha daily, those residues accumulate in your body over time.
This is not a wellness philosophy. It is basic chemistry.
At 17 Rootea, the matcha used in every single drink is certified organic.
This means the tea leaves are grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or harmful chemical fertilizers.
What ends up in your cup is the pure plant — nothing more, nothing less.
For Christina, a founder with a medical background, this was never a marketing decision. It was a health decision.
9 Grams Per Serving: A Meaningful Dose
Most matcha drinks at mainstream cafés use between 1 and 3 grams of matcha powder — enough for color and mild flavor, but not enough to deliver the full spectrum of matcha's wellness benefits.
At 17 Rootea, every matcha drink is made with 9 grams of organic matcha powder per serving.
This is important to know, because matcha's key compounds — L-theanine for calm focus, EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate) for antioxidant protection, and chlorophyll for detox support — are dose-dependent.
A 9-gram serving delivers a genuinely therapeutic amount of these compounds, making every 17 Rootea matcha drink as effective as it is delicious.
Collagen Snowy: Beauty in Every Sip
Every matcha drink in this collection is crowned with Collagen Snowy — 17 Rootea's signature foamy, creamy collagen topping that Christina developed directly from her background in medical aesthetics.
Collagen Snowy uses hydrolyzed collagen peptides, the most bioavailable form of collagen, broken down into small chains that the body can absorb efficiently. This is the same form of collagen that the medical aesthetics industry has long valued for skin support. When Christina opened 17 Rootea, she didn't leave that knowledge behind. She put it in a cup.
The result is a topping that is light, airy, and delicately creamy — beautiful to look at, satisfying to drink through, and quietly working to support skin elasticity, hydration, and that lit-from-within glow that no serum can fully replicate on its own.
The Full Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Collection
1. 17 Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte — The Classic
The original. The foundation. The drink that defines what 17 Rootea stands for.
The 17 Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte is earthy, organic matcha whisked into smooth, silky milk for a rich, antioxidant-packed classic that has become one of the most beloved drinks in the Los Angeles wellness community. The matcha is vibrant, grassy, and gently sweet — the hallmark of a high-quality ceremonial-grade organic powder. The milk softens and rounds the flavor into something deeply satisfying.
Topped with Collagen Snowy, the first thing your lips touch is cool, creamy foam — and then comes the lush matcha beneath. It is a drinking experience that is as refined as it is nourishing.
This is the drink for the matcha purist. For the person who wants to experience what organic matcha actually tastes like, without distraction and without compromise. It is also the ideal daily ritual — a morning drink built around one of nature's most researched botanical ingredients, elevated by a beauty-forward topping that makes every sip count twice.
Key Benefits: Rich in EGCG antioxidants, L-theanine for calm focus, chlorophyll for detox support, hydrolyzed collagen peptides for skin health. Zero pesticides. Zero harmful chemicals. 9g of certified organic matcha per serving.
2. Strawberry Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte — The Boldest Beauty
If the Classic is the soul of the collection, the Strawberry Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte is its most photogenic expression — and one of the most talked-about drinks at 17 Rootea.
Deep, vivid red strawberry is woven into the same 9-gram organic matcha base, creating a layered contrast of colors that is as striking in the cup as it is on a screen. The bright, fruity sweetness of real strawberry balances the earthy depth of the organic matcha in a way that feels both bold and perfectly natural.
Strawberry is naturally rich in Vitamin C — one of the most important co-factors in the body's own collagen synthesis. When combined with the Collagen Snowy topping, this drink delivers a genuinely synergistic beauty combination: exogenous collagen peptides from the Snowy, plus the Vitamin C your body needs to produce its own. Christina designed this not as a coincidence, but as a formulation.
The Collagen Snowy sits on top in a pale, dreamy cloud against the warm red of the strawberry matcha beneath — a visual that has made this one of the most-photographed drinks at 17 Rootea and one of the most shareable wellness drinks in Los Angeles.
Key Benefits: Vitamin C from real strawberry to support natural collagen synthesis, EGCG antioxidants from organic matcha, collagen peptides from Collagen Snowy, L-theanine for focus. A beauty drink in the truest sense — working on your skin from multiple directions at once.
3. Mango Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte — The Tropical Energy
The Mango Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte is where 17 Rootea's organic matcha collection meets Los Angeles sunshine. Bright, tropical mango flavor — real, vibrant, and unmistakably fresh — is woven into the same 9-gram organic matcha base, creating a drink that feels like summer in every sip.
Mango brings natural sweetness that softens the earthy intensity of the organic matcha without covering it. The result is a drink that is simultaneously lively and grounding — the kind of balance that is hard to achieve and instantly recognizable when it is done right.
The Collagen Snowy crown adds its signature creamy contrast against the warm gold of the mango matcha — visually dramatic, nutritionally intentional. For Los Angeles customers who want a drink that delivers on both flavor and function, the Mango Matcha is one of the most refreshing and nourishing options on the menu.
Key Benefits: Tropical flavor without artificial sweeteners, 9g certified organic matcha for full antioxidant benefit, collagen peptides from Collagen Snowy for skin hydration and elasticity, L-theanine for calm, sustained energy throughout the day.
4. Angel Coco Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte — The Serene Ritual
The Angel Coco Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte is the most meditative drink in the collection — and the one that regulars at 17 Rootea tend to come back to every single day.
Coconut — gentle, milky, and richly satisfying — is paired with the same 9-gram organic matcha base to create something that feels rounder, softer, and more grounding than any other matcha on the menu. The coconut adds a natural creaminess that makes the drink feel deeply nourishing without being heavy, and its mild tropical sweetness complements the grassy depth of the organic matcha beautifully.
Coconut is naturally rich in medium-chain fatty acids (MCTs), which support sustained energy, cognitive clarity, and healthy skin barrier function. Paired with the antioxidant power of organic matcha and the collagen peptides of the Snowy topping, the Angel Coco Matcha becomes one of the most complete wellness drinks at 17 Rootea — supporting energy, focus, skin health, and inner calm in a single cup.
The Collagen Snowy on this drink is particularly beautiful — pale cream on pale green, foam on foam, two textures of creaminess that blend gradually as you drink. It is the Angel Coco Matcha that Christina herself most often recommends to anyone building a daily wellness ritual. It is, in the truest sense, a drink designed to be returned to.
Key Benefits: Coconut MCTs for sustained energy and skin barrier support, 9g certified organic matcha for antioxidant and L-theanine benefit, collagen peptides from Snowy for skin elasticity and hydration. Naturally dairy-free base. The ideal daily ritual.
5. Banana Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte — The Nourishing Classic
The Banana Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy Latte is the drink that surprises first-time customers the most — and the one they most consistently reorder on their second visit.
Natural banana brings a lush, creamy body to the organic matcha base that no other fruit quite replicates. It is grounding, subtly sweet, and quietly addictive — the green smoothie's more elegant, more intentional cousin. The banana and matcha combination creates a flavor profile that is simultaneously energizing and deeply satisfying, making this the most filling drink in the matcha collection.
Banana is one of nature's best sources of natural potassium, magnesium, and Vitamin B6 — all nutrients that support energy metabolism, muscle function, and nervous system health. Combined with the calm, focused energy of L-theanine from the organic matcha, the Banana Matcha is one of the strongest pre-work or pre-workout options on the 17 Rootea menu.
Topped with Collagen Snowy, the drink becomes almost dessert-like in its richness — a whipped cloud of collagen cream over a creamy, banana-matcha base. It is the drink that feels like a treat and works like a wellness choice, which is precisely the philosophy Christina built 17 Rootea around.
Key Benefits: Natural potassium and B6 from banana for energy and muscle support, 9g certified organic matcha for antioxidant benefit and calm focus, collagen peptides from Snowy for skin health. Most filling drink in the matcha collection. Ideal as a pre-workout or morning meal replacement.
Why Christina Lee Built This Collection
Christina Lee spent 15 years in the medical spa and cosmetic beauty industry watching clients invest in their skin from the outside — treatments, serums, procedures, all of it valuable and all of it real. But the clients who glowed most consistently, she noticed, were the ones who were nourishing themselves well from within.
When Christina opened 17 Rootea in Los Angeles, she built the Organic Matcha Collagen Snowy collection as the clearest expression of that observation. Organic matcha — 9 grams of it, grown without pesticides or harmful chemicals — for the antioxidants, the L-theanine, the chlorophyll. Real fruit flavors for additional phytonutrients and natural synergy. Collagen Snowy on top, because a founder with a medical aesthetics background knows exactly what collagen peptides do, and knows they work better from the inside than they ever will from a jar.
Every drink in this collection is a wellness ritual. Every ingredient was chosen for what it does, not just how it tastes. And every cup is made with the same care that Christina brought to 15 years of helping people look and feel their best — now available in Los Angeles, one organic matcha at a time.
