Iced Matcha Latte Recipe
The Iced Matcha Latte Recipe shows how to blend vibrant matcha powder with water and your choice of milk to create a chilled, refreshing green tea latte. Whisking matcha powder into a small amount of hot water forms a smooth paste that is then diluted and chilled. Served over ice and topped with milk, this drink is lightly sweetened if desired and presents a subtly earthy flavor with a cooling texture. The recipe allows flexibility with milk options and add-ins for personal preference.
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons matcha powder
- 1 to 2 tablespoons water hot
- 1 cup water warm
- ice
- milk I used almond milk, of choice
Instructions
- In a measuring cup or bowl, add the matcha powder. Pour in the 1 to 2 tablespoons of hot water and whisk until the matcha has fully incorporated into the water. This should create almost a bit of a paste.
- Pour in the remaining 1 cup of water and mix. Transfer to the fridge or freezer to chill for about 15 minutes.
- Fill two glasses full of ice and add your milk of choice so the glass is about 3/4 of the way full. If you like, this is a great time to add any simple syrup. Lastly, pour in the chilled matcha and stir.
Notes
- Use any milk alternative or dairy milk based on preference, like almond, soy, oat, cashew, or cow's milk.
- To create a fruit twist, try variations like Strawberry Matcha Latte by adding strawberry syrup or puree.
