Matcha Latte Ingredients
- 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based like almond or oat)
- 2 tablespoons simple syrup
- 1 ½ teaspoons matcha powder
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Prepare the Ingredients: Measure out 1 cup of milk, 2 tablespoons of simple syrup, and 1 ½ teaspoons of matcha powder. If you want to avoid clumps, sift the matcha powder through a fine mesh strainer before adding.
- Shake the Mixture: Pour the milk, simple syrup, and sifted matcha powder into a cocktail shaker, adding the matcha last. Seal the shaker and shake vigorously about 50 times to ensure the matcha is fully dissolved and the mixture is well blended.
- Add Ice and Serve: Fill a glass with 1 cup of ice and pour the shaken matcha latte mixture over the ice. Stir gently if desired, and enjoy immediately.
Notes
- Use whole milk for a creamier latte, or any plant-based milk for a dairy-free option.
- Sifting the matcha powder helps reduce clumping and creates a smoother drink.
- Adjust the simple syrup amount to taste depending on your preferred sweetness.
- For an extra frothy texture, use a milk frother instead of shaking.
- Store any leftover matcha mixture in the refrigerator and consume within 24 hours for best flavor.
