Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon Matcha green tea powder
- 2 tablespoons Hot water
- 1 cup Almond milk (or other soy-free milk)
- 1 teaspoon Honey or maple syrup
- 0.25 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a small bowl, sift 1 teaspoon of matcha green tea powder to remove any clumps.
Add 2 tablespoons of hot water to the sifted matcha powder. Using a small whisk, frother, or a bamboo matcha whisk, briskly whisk the mixture in a zigzag motion until it becomes a smooth, lump-free paste.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat 1 cup of almond milk (or other soy-free milk) until warm, but do not bring it to a boil.
Add 1 teaspoon of honey or maple syrup and 0.25 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the milk and stir until fully combined.
Pour the milk mixture into the matcha paste, continuing to whisk until the matcha is thoroughly incorporated and there are no lumps.
If desired, use a milk frother or immersion blender to froth the mixture to your desired consistency.
Pour the soy-free matcha latte into a mug and enjoy warm.
