Equipment

  • Bowl
  • Whisk or Frother
  • Cup
  • Spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1 teaspoon Blue Matcha
  • 60 ml Hot Water (3 tablespoons)
  • 2 teaspoons Maple Syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 150 ml Milk (about 2/3 cup)
  • Ice As desired

Instructions
 

  • Begin by gathering your ingredients. You will need:
    1 teaspoon blue matcha powder
    2 ounces hot water (not boiling)
    Using a whisk or a frother, mix the blue matcha powder with hot water. Whisk in a circular motion. This helps to dissolve the powder fully. Aim for a smooth, frothy texture. If you see clumps, continue whisking.
    For best results, try these tips:
    Use a small bowl to contain the mix.
    Make sure the water is hot, around 175°F (80°C).
    Whisk quickly for about 30 seconds.
    Once mixed, the blue matcha should look vibrant and smooth. Set it aside while you prepare the next steps.

  • Next, it’s time to add sweetness. You can choose from various sweeteners:
    Honey: 1-2 teaspoons
    Agave syrup: 1-2 teaspoons
    Sugar: 1-2 teaspoons
    Mix your chosen sweetener into the whisked blue matcha. Stir until fully dissolved. Taste the mixture and adjust the sweetness to your liking. This step is important for flavor balance.
    Feel free to experiment with different sweeteners. Each one will give a unique taste. Natural sweeteners like honey or agave add richness, while sugar is a classic choice.
  • Now it’s time to cool things down. Take a tall glass and fill it with ice. Use enough ice to fill the glass halfway. This keeps your drink refreshing.
    Pour the sweetened blue matcha over the ice. Watch as the vibrant blue color contrasts with the ice. This creates a beautiful layered effect.
    Consider these tips for the perfect ice layer:
    Use large ice cubes to slow melting.
    Fill the glass with ice before pouring the matcha.
    Leave some space at the top for milk.
    This step sets the stage for your Blue Matcha Latte. The coolness of the ice enhances the drink's refreshing qualities.

  • It’s time to add milk to your latte. Choose your favorite type of milk:
    Almond milk
    Coconut milk
    Oat milk
    Regular dairy milk
    Gently pour the milk over the ice and blue matcha mixture. Pour slowly to create a layered look. The milk will float on top of the blue matcha, creating a stunning visual.
    For a creamier texture, use frothed milk. Heat the milk and froth it before pouring. This adds a delightful foam on top. Adjust the amount of milk to your taste.
  • Your Blue Matcha Latte is almost ready. To finish, consider adding a sprinkle of blue matcha powder on top. This enhances the look of your drink.
    For added flavor, you can also drizzle honey or a splash of vanilla extract. Use a straw or stir gently to mix the layers if you prefer. Enjoy the beautiful sight and taste of your creation!
    Take a moment to admire your drink. The vibrant blue and creamy white layers create a feast for the eyes. This latte is perfect for a morning boost or an afternoon treat.
    Now, take a sip and enjoy the fresh, unique flavors of your Blue Matcha Latte!
