  1. In a small saucepan, place milk over medium-low heat. Once steaming but not yet at a boil, remove from heat and add the white chocolate. Whisk until smooth.
  2. Sift the matcha into a small bowl, pour in the hot water. Whisk until smooth and completely dissolved with no lumps. Whisk into the white hot chocolate, followed by the vanilla extract.
