How to prepare a coffee shop worthy matcha latte!

How to prepare a matcha latte

You have tried matcha latte in a coffee shop and now you want to recreate it? It’s easy and costs only about ¼ of the coffee shop prices! The trick is to prepare the matcha green tea first and then add the hot milk and foam.

WHAT DO YOU NEED?

2g (1 tbsp) of Matcha Moments Premium Matcha
100ml (3.4oz) of milk (cow, almond, soy, rice – we like the roasted taste of almond milk most)
Milk frother
Optional: Honey or Agave nectar to sweeten

STEP 1: PREPARE THE MATCHA

Add 2g of Matcha Moments Premium Matcha with 200ml (6.8oz), non-boiling 80°C (176°F) water to a bowl. Briskly whisk the matcha in an “M” or “W” form until a frothy pastel colored layer forms.

STEP 2: PREPARE THE MILK

Froth 100ml (3.4oz) of milk in a classic milk frother. We use this one which is very convenient as it’s fully automatic, makes a good foam and the cup can be cleaned in the dishwasher. Alternatively, this type of hand frother will do the job as well.

STEP 3: ADD IT ALL TOGETHER

Fill the matcha in a tall glass and pour the hot milk in. Scoop foamy milk on top. If you like, add some honey or agave nectar to sweeten.

Enjoy your matcha green tea latte and the calm and focused energy you obtain from drinking it. And if you like, share your pic with us on Facebook or Instagram with the Hashtag #mymatchamoment. Every week we feature our favorite matcha post from one of our followers.
