Matcha Preparation Guide
- Sift the matcha powder before whisking to avoid clumps.
- Use water that is hot but not boiling (80°C/175°F) to preserve the delicate flavors.
- Whisk until you see a fine foam with small bubbles for the best texture and taste.
- For a sweeter latte, add honey, maple syrup, or vanilla syrup before adding the milk.
- Oat milk and almond milk work great for dairy-free alternatives.
- For an iced version, use cold milk and pour over ice after mixing the matcha with hot water.
