Instructions
Make Vanilla Syrup
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, whisk together the water and granulated sugar for the vanilla syrup. Leave it alone as it heats up and th sugar dissolves.
- Once the simple syrup comes to a simmer, turn off the heat and add the vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste. Set aside to use for later.
Make Vanilla Matcha Latte
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan or in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup until it's 185 degrees F (85 degrees C).
- Pour 1/4 cup (2 ounces) of the hot milk into a large latte mug, add the matcha powder and use the milk frother to whip the matcha powder into the milk until it's smooth. We don't want any lumps!
- Add 1/2 of the vanilla syrup to the matcha milk.
- Use the milk frother to whip up the rest of the hot milk until it is very foamy and frothy, for about 2 minutes.
- Pour the foamy milk into the mug with the matcha and vanilla syrup. Taste for sweetness and add vanilla syrup as needed.
- Serve hot!
Notes
- Instead of heating up the milk, whisk the matcha into a little hot water or milk, then pour it into a glass filled with ice and cold milk.
- Substitute half of the hot milk with half and half or heavy cream for an extra creamy and rich latte.
- You can swap the vanilla syrup for agave nectar, maple syrup, or raw honey.
- Don't do dairy? Try these non-dairy milks instead:
- Oat Milk: Foams up the best out of all the non-dairy milks.
- Coconut Milk: Will make your drink taste like coconut.
- Almond Milk, Cashew Milk, Soy Milk. Won't froth up, but is a good choice if it's your preference.
