Ingredients

1 tsp matcha powder

2 tsp maple syrup

3 tbsp warm water

250 ml cold almond milk

or

300 ml warm milk


Directions

Spoon the matcha green tea powder and the sugar into a mug or cup.

Add the warm water and mix with a spoon or with a whisk until it is a smooth dark green paste to ensure no lumps form.

Warm the milk in a small saucepan and pour into the mug until nearly full. Use cold milk for an iced latte.

Use a whisk to mix the paste and milk together until smooth and light green in color.

If you so wish, you can add a few sprinkles of matcha green tea powder on the top for decoration. Or add ice for an extra cold iced latte.
