A matcha latte is a perfect blend of earthy matcha green tea and creamy milk, making it a delicious and nutritious alternative to traditional lattes. Here's an easy recipe to create your own matcha latte at home:
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon of high-quality matcha powder
- 2 ounces of hot water (not boiling)
- 8 ounces of milk (dairy or non-dairy)
- Sweetener (optional)
Instructions
- Sift the Matcha: Start by sifting the matcha powder into a bowl or cup to remove any clumps.
- Whisk the Matcha: Add hot water to the sifted matcha. Use a bamboo whisk (chasen) or a small whisk to whisk the matcha and water together until smooth and frothy.
- Heat the Milk: Warm your choice of milk in a saucepan or microwave. For extra froth, use a milk frother or blender.
- Combine and Serve: Pour the frothy matcha into a cup, then gently add the warm milk. Stir to combine. Sweeten to taste, if desired.
- Enjoy: Sip your homemade matcha latte and enjoy the unique, energizing flavors.
Tips
- For a vegan matcha latte, almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk are excellent non-dairy options.
- Adjust the matcha powder quantity for a stronger or milder flavor, according to your preference.
Indulge in the comforting warmth of a homemade matcha latte, a delightful way to energize your day.
