Creamy Matcha Latte
A delicious and cozy creamy matcha latte recipe.
Ingredients
- 1-2 teaspoons culinary grade matcha powder depending on strength desired
- 2 oz hot water 160°F–175°F
- 6 oz steamed plant-based milk oat or cashew milk works great
- Optional: 1 teaspoon maple syrup or agave for sweetness
Instructions
- Sift matcha powder into a mug to prevent clumping.
- Add 2 oz hot water and whisk briskly in a zigzag motion until frothy and fully dissolved.
- Gently steam and froth your milk to 150°F–160°F. Avoid overheating.
- Pour the steamed milk into your mug with the matcha.
- Sweeten if desired, stir gently, and enjoy.
Notes
- No steamer? Heat the milk gently on the stove (but not boiling), then froth it with a whisk or handheld frother, or shake warm milk in a covered jar for 30–60 seconds.
- Plant-based milk froth better when cold-steamed or gently heated.
- For extra flavor, add a splash of vanilla and/or a pinch of cinnamon.
