Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte
Tools / Necessities:
- Bamboo whisk (chasen)
- Electric milk frother
- Bowl (chawan)
- Cocktail muddler
- Drinking glass
Ingredients:
- 2 tsp Ceremonial Matcha or Premium Matcha (Blending grade)
- 200 ml milk (tip: plant-based milk works great)
- 5 large or 8 small strawberries (fresh or frozen) + optional agave syrup
- 30 ml cold water + ice cubes
Instructions:
- Add the strawberries to a glass and mash them using a cocktail muddler (or a whisk). Make sure the fruit is finely mashed, forming a strawberry layer about 1/3 of the glass. Optionally, add a little agave syrup or honey if you prefer it sweeter.
- Froth 200 ml of cold milk in an electric milk frother. Most frothers have a cold setting; if not, simply use cold milk.
- Prepare a cold, thick matcha shot by whisking 2 tsp matcha powder with 30 ml cold water in a bowl using the bamboo whisk. Sift the matcha first if necessary to avoid lumps.
- Add ice cubes to the glass with the mashed strawberries, then pour in the cold frothed milk.
- Finally, pour the cold matcha shot over the milk and strawberries.
Enjoy your Iced Strawberry Matcha Latte!
