Iced Matcha Latte

What is Matcha?

Matcha powder is made up of ground up green tea leaves. Instead of brewing a cup of tea with tea leaves, this is ground up leaves that are dissolved into the warm/hot water. If you ever have the privilege of visiting Kyoto, Japan, be sure to go to a tea house and buy some beautiful matcha green tea powder for the road. The packets make great gifts.

This Matcha Iced Latte couldn’t be simpler. As a result, it’s the perfect thing to make at home!

How to Make Iced Matcha Latte

STEP 1:

You put a few teaspoons of matcha powder in a measuring cup and add a few tablespoons of hot water.

STEP 2:

Whisk it until the matcha has dissolved and then you pour in the remaining water and whisk some more. I transfer it to the fridge or freezer to chill for about 15 minutes. 

                   

STEP 3:

After the matcha is cooled, add a ridiculous amount of ice to a glass. And then, pour the almond milk (or milk of choice) into the glass and a splash of simple syrup. Lastly, pour in the matcha.
