A creamy green latte mixing matcha, oat milk, and honey for a smooth, gentle flavor experience.
# What You Need:
→ Matcha Mixture
01 - 1 teaspoon high-quality matcha green tea powder
02 - 2 tablespoons hot water (about 80°C/175°F)
→ Sweetener
03 - 1 tablespoon honey
→ Milk
04 - 1 cup oat milk
# How-To:
01 - Sift the matcha powder into a bowl or mug to prevent lumps from forming.
02 - Add the hot water to the matcha and whisk briskly with a bamboo whisk or small regular whisk until smooth and frothy.
03 - Stir in the honey until fully dissolved into the matcha mixture.
04 - Heat the oat milk in a small saucepan over medium heat or steam using a milk frother until hot but not boiling.
05 - Froth the oat milk using a frother or whisk for extra creaminess and texture.
06 - Pour the warm oat milk over the matcha mixture and gently stir to combine. Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of matcha powder on top for garnish. Serve immediately.
# Expert Hints:
01 -
- The oat milk creates an incredibly smooth texture that lets the matcha shine without any dairy heaviness
- You can adjust the sweetness to hit exactly what your mood needs that morning
02 -
- Sifting is absolutely nonnegotiable, I learned this after one too many lumpy cups
- The water temperature makes or breaks this, too hot and it becomes bitter, too cool and the matcha wont dissolve properly
03 -
- Invest in a bamboo whisk if you plan to make this regularly, the froth it creates is unmatched
- Buy matcha in small quantities and store it in the freezer, it oxidizes and loses flavor pretty quickly once opened
