Base Ingredients

Equipment

Method

Preparation of Matcha

  1. 1

    Mixing the Matcha

    In a small bowl, sift the matcha powder to remove any clumps. This ensures a smooth latte. Add 2 ounces of hot water to the bowl.

  2. 2

    Whisking

    Using the matcha whisk (chasen), whisk the matcha and water together in a zig-zag motion until it becomes frothy and well combined. This should take about 1-2 minutes.

Preparing the Milk

  1. 3

    Heating the Milk

    In a saucepan, gently heat the milk over medium heat until it is hot but not boiling. Stir occasionally to prevent scalding.

  2. 4

    Frothing the Milk (optional)

    If you have a milk frother, you can froth the heated milk until it becomes creamy and a bit frothy. If you don’t have a frother, you can use a whisk to vigorously whisk the milk until it foams slightly.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 5

    Assembling the Latte

    In a mug, pour the whisked matcha mixture first. Then, gently pour the hot milk over the matcha. If you are using a sweetener, add it at this stage.

  2. 6

    Final Touch

    Stir gently to combine the matcha and milk. You can sprinkle a little extra matcha on top for garnish if desired.
