🥄 Procedure
Sift the matcha into a small bowl to avoid lumps.
Add the hot (not boiling) water and mix vigorously until you get a smooth cream without lumps.
In a tall glass, fill with ice to taste.
Pour the cold milk over the ice.
Gently add the dissolved matcha, pouring it slowly to get a nice layered effect (optional).
Add the sweetener and mix well before drinking.
Enjoy!
💡 Variant: Matcha Dalgona – whip plant-based cream or egg whites with sugar and matcha to create a fluffy cream to place on top of the cold milk!
✅ Extra Tips
For a creamier taste, use whole milk or rich plant-based drinks (like oat or coconut).
If you want a sweet and indulgent Matcha Latte, add 1 teaspoon of condensed milk instead of sugar.
You can also shake everything with ice for a frappé-like consistency.
