Oatly has introduced their Matcha Oat Drink to Canadian shelves, offering a ready-to-drink option that brings together oat milk and green tea in a convenient format. The product is now rolling out across major retailers including Loblaws, Real Canadian Superstore, London Drugs, Metro Québec, IGA Québec, Amazon, Well.ca, Sobeys, Safeway, and Walmart.
Oatly Matcha Oat Drink is made with their signature oat base blended with high-quality matcha. The result is a creamy beverage with a lightly sweetened profile and a distinct green tea flavour. The matcha contributes a natural earthiness while vanilla notes round out the finish, making it approachable for both matcha regulars and those newer to the category.
I tried the drink chilled over ice to get a sense of their flavour as intended. The texture felt smooth and lightly creamy without being heavy. The matcha comes through clearly, with a gentle bitterness that is balanced by a subtle sweetness. It reads more like a mellow matcha latte than a strong tea, which makes it easy to sip without needing adjustments.
The drink is designed for flexibility in how it is enjoyed. It can be served cold over ice or warmed for a softer, tea-like experience. Oatly positions it as a shortcut to a matcha latte without the need for whisking or measuring.
Oatly highlights that their oat drinks are made without dairy, nuts, or soy, and are designed to deliver a smooth texture suitable for sipping on their own or using as a base for lattes. The matcha version continues that approach, offering a balance between convenience and flavour.
The suggested retail price is $6.49 CAD for a one-litre carton, with availability expanding nationwide through the spring and summer season.
