Ingredients
For the blueberry compote (Substitute: Blueberry Jam + a bit of water)
- 1 Cup blueberries Frozen or fresh. Best if you use slightly over-ripe berries that are soft and squishy!
- 2 Tablespoons White Sugar, or to taste (depending on sweetness of your blueberries) Vegan option: use 1 that is bone char free or maple syrup
- 2 Tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice, optional Substitute: white wine vinegar, rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar. This brightens the flavor of the blueberry syrup.
For the Matcha Milk
- ½ Tablespoon Ceremonial matcha powder Substitute: culinary matcha powder
- 2-3 Cups whole milk Vegan option: plant-based milk such as almond, oat, soy etc
- 1 Cup Ice cubes Optional, for iced blueberry matcha latte

Instructions
Making the blueberry compote
- Cook the blueberries, sugar and water in a pot over medium-low heat.
- Mash the berries with a potato masher or fork, till you get a compote.Simmer for 5-10 minutes on low heat till you get a thick syrup. (If you want a smooth syrup, you may need to strain out the pulp, which you can keep to use in bakes! Don't toss the pulp- see Notes for ideas on what to do with it.)
Making the matcha milk
- Right before the blueberries are done or whilst they are cooling, use a matcha whisk to whisk the matcha powder into the milk of your choice. If using a bowl, don't fill it to the top to prevent spills (or use a deep container.) (You don't want to do this too early, as the matcha will separate if it sits for too long. If there are clumps in your matcha powder, use the whisk to break them up before pouring the liquid over it.)
Assembling the blueberry matcha drink
- Add the thick blueberry mixture to the bottom of the glass. Use heat-proof cups if your blueberries are still hot!
- Pour the matcha milk over the blueberries. Serve and enjoy with some matcha buns on the side!5a. Iced blueberry matcha latte: For a fun twist, swirl some blueberry syrup, edible flowers and matcha into your ice cube container then freeze them.5b. Hot blueberry matcha latte: heat up the milk before pouring it over the blueberries. (You may want to add more blueberry syrup as hot matcha is a tad more bitter.) Make sure the glass is heat proof!
Notes
- Blueberry compote
- If your blueberry sauce gets too thick, add a bit of hot water and stir.
- You can keep the sieved-out blueberry pulp and add it bakes such as mochi muffins or your morning granola. (It has lots of fibre!) If you don't like the texture, use an immersion blender to blitz it into a fine powder. (You can also use the blender to blitz the blueberries, then you won't have to sieve out.)
- Storage
- If you make extra blueberry compote, it can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for around 1 week. (Note that increasing the amount of blueberries will increase the cooking time!) This blueberry "jam" can be spooned over ice-cream or oatmeal for breakfast! It's even good as a meat sauce, when mixed with soy sauce!
- The matcha tea, however, should not be made in advance. If not, the matcha powder and milk will separate after a while! (If you have extra, store it in the fridge and whisk again before serving.)
