Heat the water in a small saucepan over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Do not boil.
While the water is heating, sift the matcha powder into a large mug or bowl to prevent clumping.
Add the hot water (not boiling) to the matcha powder gradually while whisking vigorously in a zigzag motion using a bamboo whisk or a small regular whisk until the mixture is frothy and smooth.
In the same saucepan, heat the unsweetened almond milk until warm but not boiling. Froth the milk using a milk frother or whisk until it becomes light and foamy.
Pour the almond milk into the prepared matcha mixture. Stir gently to combine.
Add the vanilla extract, and if desired, incorporate the stevia or monk fruit sweetener for additional sweetness. Stir well to combine.
Serve immediately in a heat-proof glass or mug, savoring the delicate balance of flavors in this skinny, sugar-free treat.
