Ingredients
Scale
- 1 teaspoon matcha green tea powder*
- 2 ounces (1/4 cup) cool filtered water
- 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup or vanilla syrup)
- 6 ounces (3/4 cup) skim milk, oat milk or almond milk
- Step it up: add Cold Foam!
Instructions
- Whisk the matcha: Add the matcha to a spouted bowl or glass liquid measuring cup. Add a drizzle of the cool water and whisk the matcha with a bamboo whisk or regular whisk to form it into a paste. Add the remaining cool water and whisk vigorously back and forth until a thick foamy layer appears, about 20 to 30 seconds. Or, you can simply shake the matcha powder and cool water in a jar until frothy.
- Add honey: Add the honey and whisk a few more seconds.
- Froth the milk: Froth the milk by placing it in a jar with a lid and shaking vigorously for 30 seconds. (You can skip this step if desired and use plain milk.)
- Serve: Pour the matcha into an iced-filled glass. Pour the frothed milk over the matcha, stir, and enjoy. (To step up the drink, stir well then add Cold Foam on top!)
Notes
*For the brightest green color and best flavor, we recommend this Ceremonial Grade Matcha. This Latte Grade Matcha also works, but has a more muted color and bitter flavor. Avoid Cooking Grade Matcha here; the flavor isn’t up to snuff.
