How to Make an Iced Matcha Latte
Looking for a refreshing way to enjoy matcha? An iced matcha latte is smooth, creamy, and packed with the naturally uplifting benefits of green tea. Best of all, it's easy to make at home in just a few minutes.
Ingredients
-
1 teaspoon matcha powder
-
2 ounces hot water (about 175°F)
-
6–8 ounces milk of choice
-
Ice cubes
-
Optional: sweetener to taste
Instructions
-
Sift the matcha powder into a bowl or cup to remove any clumps.
-
Whisk the Matcha: Matcha doesn't dissolve well in cold liquids, so start by whisking 1–2 teaspoons of matcha powder with about ¼ cup of hot water in the bowl until completely smooth and lightly frothy.
-
Fill Your Glass: Add ice to a tall glass, then pour in your favorite cold milk, filling the glass about three-quarters full.
-
Allow matcha to cool slightly, then slowly add the matcha to the glass of iced milk.
-
Give it a little stir.
-
Sweeten if desired and enjoy.
Tips for the Best Iced Matcha Latte
