Matcha Latte Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- 2 ounces hot water (around 175°F/80°C)
- 6 ounces oat milk, warmed
- Sweetener to taste (such as honey, maple syrup, or agave)
- Prepare Matcha Mixture: Sift 1 teaspoon of matcha powder into a bowl or cup to remove any lumps. Pour in 2 ounces of hot water (not boiling) and whisk vigorously in a zigzag motion until the matcha is fully dissolved and a frothy layer forms on top.
- Heat Oat Milk: Warm 6 ounces of oat milk either on the stovetop or in the microwave until hot but not boiling, to preserve sweetness and creaminess.
- Combine and Sweeten: Pour the warmed oat milk slowly into the matcha mixture, stirring gently to blend. Add sweetener of your choice to taste and stir until fully incorporated.
- Serve: Pour the latte into your favorite mug. Optionally, froth the oat milk before adding for a creamier texture and garnish with a sprinkle of matcha powder on top.
Notes
- Use high-quality, ceremonial grade matcha for the best flavor and smoothness.
- Avoid boiling water to prevent bitterness; ideally use water around 175°F (80°C).
- Adjust sweetness depending on personal preference and dietary needs.
- This recipe is dairy-free and vegan-friendly by using oat milk.
- For a colder version, chill the oat milk and serve over ice.
