In a small bowl, sift the matcha green tea powder to remove any clumps, ensuring a smooth texture.
Add hot water to the bowl with the matcha powder. Using a small whisk or a bamboo matcha whisk, vigorously whisk in a zigzag motion until the matcha is fully dissolved and a thick paste with frothy bubbles forms on the surface.
Add the maple syrup to the matcha mixture and stir well to combine. You can adjust the sweetness level by adding more or less maple syrup to taste.
Fill a glass with ice cubes, up to about 3/4 full.
Pour the oat milk over the ice cubes in the glass.
Slowly pour the matcha mixture over the top of the oat milk and ice, creating a beautiful layered effect.
Stir gently with a spoon or straw to combine the layers just before drinking.
Enjoy your vibrant and refreshing Vegan Iced Matcha!
