Ingredients
2 tsp matcha (green tea powder)
1 oz hot water
8 oz milk
1/2 oz 2:1 clear syrup
ice
Directions
Sift the matcha into a small bowl, add the hot water, and blend with a small frother. Add the clear syrup. Pour that mixture into a large glass filled with ice. Froth cold milk in a separate container, and add it to the glass.
Notes
Refreshing and vibrant! I’ve always wanted to make this drink at home, and Nami’s recipe is foolproof! I used unsweetened soy milk, so I added 1 oz syrup. It’s a reminder of why it’s important to have a syrup that just adds sweetness but no flavor, so nothing competes with the matcha.
