Ingredients

  • 2 tsp matcha powder
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 50 ml hot water heated to around 80°C (176°F)
  • 2 tsp honey or maple syrup, sugar syrup, etc
  • 180 ml milk of your choice
  • Ice cubes

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. First, boil your water and then allow it to cool to about 80°C (176°F).Sift 2 tsp matcha powder into a small bowl.
  2. Add 1 tsp sugar.
  3. Pour 50 ml hot water into the bowl.
  4. Whisk until the matcha and sugar have dissolved and foam has formed on top. I recommend using a "chasen" (bamboo matcha whisk) for best results.
  5. In a separate jug, measure out 180 ml milk and add 2 tsp honey.
  6. Whisk until the honey is incorporated into the milk.
  7. Fill a glass with ice cubes about one-third of the way up.
  8. Pour the sweetened milk over the ice.
  9. Carefully pour the matcha mixture over the top, use a spoon to slow the pour. This will create a layered effect.
  10. Mix well before drinking and enjoy!

Notes

  • I recommend using a syrup sweetener to sweeten the milk, this helps the matcha sit on top to create the layered effect.
  • Feel free to reduce or increase the sweetness to your liking, but be aware that altering the recipe might alter the layered effect.
