If using, stir in the honey or agave syrup until fully dissolved.
In a blender, add the almond milk and ice cubes. Blend until smooth and frothy.
Pour the almond milk mixture into a glass.
Slowly pour the prepared matcha over the almond milk to create a layered effect. For a more mixed version, stir together before drinking.
