Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Matcha green tea powder
- 2 tablespoons Hot water
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or other low sodium dairy alternative)
- 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
Start by sifting the matcha powder into a small bowl to remove any lumps for a smoother consistency.
Add hot water to the matcha and whisk vigorously using a bamboo whisk or a small regular whisk, until the mixture is completely smooth and frothy.
In a small saucepan, warm the almond milk over medium heat. Do not let it boil, just heat it until it is hot to the touch.
Once the almond milk is heated, remove it from the heat and pour the matcha mixture into a serving mug.
Slowly add the hot almond milk into the mug with matcha mixture, stirring gently to mix thoroughly.
If desired, stir in honey or maple syrup to sweeten the latte.
Enjoy your low sodium matcha latte immediately while it's warm and aromatic.
