How to Make a Matcha Latte
1. Sift the Matcha
Add 2g of matcha to a bowl and sift it to remove any lumps.
2. Add Warm Water
Add 30–50ml of warm water. Avoid boiling water, as very hot water can make matcha taste bitter.
3. Whisk
Whisk the matcha and water until smooth and slightly frothy. A bamboo whisk or milk frother works well.
4. Add Milk
Add around 200ml of warm milk for a hot matcha latte.
For an iced matcha latte, pour the matcha over ice and add cold milk.
5. Adjust to Your Taste
Start with 2g of matcha. If you prefer a stronger flavour, try 3g.
You can also add honey, maple syrup, or another sweetener if you prefer a sweeter latte.
