Matcha Latte Brewing Guide

Style

Creamy — Ideal for latte lovers.

Teaware Needed

A Matcha latte can be prepared stove-top or with the steamer of an espresso machine. Asian-style espresso cups are ideal for this presentation.

Preparation Recipe

Add about 1.5 teaspoons (or 3 heaping scoops if using a chashaku) to a small amount of hot water (around a tablespoon) and whisk the powder into the water until it is dissolved.

You can then prepare the beverage like an espresso latte (steam around 8 ounces of milk and pour over the matcha), or you can add your milk directly to the matcha and heat over the stove, bringing to a boil once and then removing from the heat.

Garnish with Matcha powder on top.

Sweetener options: vanilla, honey, cane sugar, stevia.

Flavor Profile
