Mathcha Latte
How to make a healthy cup of Matcha Latte at home with matcha green tea, refined sugar-free sweetener and frothy dairy-free milk. Vegan, low carb with keto and paleo sweetener options.
Ingredients
- 1.5 tsp matcha green tea
- 1/2 cup very hot OR boiling water , divided
- 2/3 cup thick almond milk (we like Malk Organics) OR dairy-free creamer (Nut Pods)
OPTIONAL SWEETENER OF YOUR CHOICE:
- 1 tsp Lakanto sugar-free maple syrup, liquid low carb sweetener OR pure maple syrup
Instructions
-
Use your scoop or spoon to measure out about out 1.5 teaspoons of matcha powder into your matcha bowl or mug.
-
Pour 1-2 tablespoons of hot water or boiling water over the matcha powder.
-
Use the bamboo whisk again to whisk vigorously in a back-and-forth zig-zag motion or a “W” motion for about 30 seconds, until a loose paste forms. This helps to ensure the matcha dissolves smoothly with no clumps.
-
Fill the cup with the remaining hot water (add sweetener now if using), then whisk again, until small bubbles form. You can also use a handheld frother to create even more bubbles.
-
Heat your dairy-free milk in a frothing pitcher or on the stovetop until hot and steamy then use a handheld frother to make it even more frothy.
-
Pour your frothed / steamed milk into mug. Enjoy immediately.
