- 2 teaspoon matcha powder
- 2 tablespoons hot water
- ½ cup milk dairy or non-dairy
- ½ cup fresh strawberries hulled
- 1-2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- Ice cubes
In a small bowl, whisk together the matcha powder and hot water until the matcha is fully dissolved and no lumps remain. You can microwave the water on a large glass or ceramic bowl for a quicker latte. Set aside to cool.
In a blender, combine the chopped strawberries and honey, blending until smooth to create a strawberry purée. If you like a sweeter drink, use both tablespoons of honey or maple syrup.
Fill your glass with ice cubes.
Pour the strawberry purée into the glass, pouring it over the ice.
Pour ½ cup of milk into the glass over the strawberry layer.
Carefully pour the cooled matcha mixture over the milk layer, then stir gently to combine the layers slightly (or leave them layered for a beautiful presentation).
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less liquid sweetener to the strawberry purée according to your taste — for the least sweet option, use just a teaspoon per glass.
- For a frothier drink, you can use a milk frother to froth the milk before adding it to the glass. Top with whipped cream for extra height!
