Base Ingredients

Method

Preparing the Matcha Base

  1. 1

    Whisking the Matcha

    In a small bowl, add 2 teaspoons of matcha powder. Gradually pour in 60 ml of hot water (not boiling) while whisking vigorously with a bamboo whisk or a milk frother until the mixture is smooth and frothy.

Creating the Milk Layer

  1. 2

    Heating the Milk

    In a saucepan, heat 240 ml of almond milk over medium heat until warm, but do not bring it to a boil.

  2. 3

    Flavoring the Milk

    Once the milk is warm, stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of your chosen sweetener until well combined.

  3. 4

    Frothing the Milk

    Use a milk frother or a whisk to froth the milk until it becomes light and airy. If you don't have a frother, you can shake the milk in a jar with a lid until frothy.

Assembling the Drink

  1. 5

    Layering the Ingredients

    In a tall glass or cup, first pour the whisked matcha mixture. Then, gently pour the frothed milk over the matcha to create a layered effect.

  2. 6

    Garnishing

    Sprinkle 0.5 teaspoon of matcha powder on top and add 1 tablespoon of edible flowers for a beautiful garnish.
