Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
  • 2 tablespoons simple syrup
  • 1 ½ teaspoons matcha powder
  • 1 cup ice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Matcha: Sift 1 ½ teaspoons of matcha powder into a bowl to avoid clumps and then whisk it with a small amount of hot water (about 2 tablespoons) until smooth and frothy.
  2. Add Sweetener: Stir in 2 tablespoons of simple syrup to the matcha mixture to balance the earthiness and add sweetness.
  3. Mix with Milk: Pour 1 cup of your preferred milk into a glass and gently add the blended matcha and syrup mixture, stirring to combine evenly.
  4. Add Ice: Fill the glass with 1 cup of ice to chill the latte and give it that refreshing, frosty consistency.

Notes

  • You can adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of simple syrup or substituting with honey or agave syrup.
  • Use dairy or any plant-based milk like almond, oat, or soy for different flavor profiles or dietary preferences.
  • Use a proper matcha whisk (chasen) or a small handheld frother to achieve a smooth, frothy texture.
  • For a stronger matcha flavor, increase the amount of matcha powder slightly.
