Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder (ceremonial grade preferred)
- 2 tablespoons hot water (about 175°F / 80°C)
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
- 1 teaspoon honey or sugar (optional, adjust to taste)
Instructions
- Sift the matcha powder into a bowl to remove any clumps.
- Add the hot water and whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion until the matcha is fully dissolved and frothy.
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until steaming (do not boil). Alternatively, froth the milk using a frother.
- Pour the milk into a mug and add the matcha concentrate. Stir gently to combine.
- Sweeten with honey or sugar if desired. Serve immediately.
Tips
- For a stronger matcha flavor, use 1.5 teaspoons of matcha powder.
- To make an iced matcha latte, use cold milk and pour over ice after preparing the matcha concentrate.
- Adjust the sweetness to your preference; traditional matcha latte is often unsweetened.
