Strawberry Matcha Latte Recipe
Experience the perfect blend of earthy matcha and sweet strawberries in this refreshing, layered latte! A vibrant, healthy treat that’s just as good for your body as it is for your feed. ✨
Equipment
- Blender (for the strawberry puree)
- Whisk or matcha whisk (for the matcha powder)
- Glass (preferably clear for the layered look)
- Spoon or straw (for stirring)
- Ice (optional)
Ingredients
- 1 tsp matcha powder high-quality, ceremonial grade preferred
- ½ cup fresh strawberries sliced, for puree
- 1 cup milk whole, almond, oat, or any preferred milk
- 1 tsp honey or sweetener of choice
- Ice cubes optional, for a chilled drink
Instructions
- Prepare the Strawberry Puree: Blend the fresh strawberries until smooth. If you like it sweeter, add a little honey or sweetener.
- Mix the Matcha: In a small bowl, whisk the matcha powder with a small splash of hot water (just enough to dissolve) until frothy and smooth.
- Assemble the Latte: In a tall glass, add the strawberry puree at the bottom, followed by ice (if using).
- Add the Milk: Pour the milk on top of the strawberry layer, creating a beautiful gradient effect.
- Top with Matcha: Gently pour the prepared matcha over the milk to create a layered look.
- Stir & Enjoy: Stir to combine before sipping, or keep the layers intact for a stunning visual treat.
Notes
- Customizable: You can use almond milk, oat milk, or any non-dairy alternative for a vegan version. Adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or a dash of maple syrup!
- Hot or Iced: This recipe works just as well served hot during cooler months—just heat the milk before layering.
- Matcha Quality: Always opt for ceremonial-grade matcha for the best flavor and health benefits. It’s smoother and more vibrant in color.
