Matcha has become increasingly popular over the years. We learned quickly that it is easy to make at home, and a good matcha set makes for a lovely gift. With a few simple ingredients and a couple tools, you can put together your own matcha lattes. Here is how we make these tasty drinks at home!
Ingredients
- 1–2 teaspoons matcha powder (look for good quality matcha)
- 2 tablespoons hot water
- ¾–1 cup milk (oat, almond, soy, or whole milk)
- 1–2 teaspoons sweetener (honey, maple syrup, etc)
- Ice
Also needed: frother or bamboo whisk, large glass, stainless straw.
Directions
Whisk the matcha with hot water. Use a bamboo whisk or electric frother to make sure that the matcha is fully dissolved.
You can also mix in your sweetener and whisk, until there is a light layer of foam.
Fill your glass with ice cubes.
Pour the milk over the ice.
Gently pour the matcha mixture into the glass. You can leave this layered, for effect, or combine with a spoon or stainless straw.
You can top with whipped cream for fun.
I do love matcha drinks. This one sounds so delicious and I will be making it soon.
Yum, this matcha drink looks tasty! I’ll have to give it a try for sure. I love the health benefits.
This iced matcha latte looks so refreshing and easy to make. I love how you break it down into simple steps anyone can follow. Thanks for sharing such a perfect pick-me-up recipe that feels both calming and energizing.
My friend is currently trying to get me into Matcha at the moment. I’ve not tried a matcha latte before. I’ve only just discovered there is a big difference in quality between brands. I might try this with whipped cream!
My daughter just made this last night, and I still haven’t tried it. She loves it and says it’s so refreshing and good.
This looks divine and I so need to make myself one of these today! My husband will enjoy it too!
