The Matcha Latte is the modern way of preparing matcha. Matcha is mixed with milk and lightly frothed. The combination results in a mild, creamy version of classic matcha tea .
Ingredients
- 2 g (2 scoops) matcha powder
- 200 - 300 ml milk (or plant milk of your choice)
- 70 ml hot water
- Sweetener of your choice (e.g. honey, agave syrup, sugar)
Method
- Put the matcha powder in a cup and add the hot water. Stir the mixture with a matcha whisk or spoon until the powder is completely dissolved and a foamy consistency is formed.
- Heat the milk in a saucepan or in the microwave until it is hot but not boiling. You can also froth the milk to create a creamier matcha latte. Use a milk frother or shake the hot milk vigorously in a sealed container.
- Carefully pour the hot or frothed milk into the cup with the dissolved matcha powder. Stir until everything is well mixed. Sweeten the matcha latte with honey, agave syrup or sugar as desired.
