Ingredients

  • 1-2 teaspoons matcha powder
  • 1 tablespoon hot water Note 1
  • ½ cup almond milk Note 2
  • ½ teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Instructions

  • Scoop matcha powder into a bowl.
  • Add just a little bit of hot water, about 1 tablespoon or so. If you add too much water, it’ll be hard to get rid of all the lumps. If you have, use a bamboo whisk (chasen), but I usually use a small flexible silicone baby spoon, which works perfectly.
  • Using a milk frother, froth hot almond milk with honey.
  • Then add the milk into the prepared matcha paste. And enjoy!

Notes

Note 1: Make sure to use hot, but not boiling water, or it'll burn the delicate matcha powder, making it bitter.
Note 2: You may use any type of milk, but I prefer almond, or oat milk over regular cow's milk. To warm up the milk, I microwave it for 2 minutes.
