Start by sifting 2 teaspoons of matcha powder into a small bowl to remove any lumps and ensure a smooth texture.
Add 60 milliliters of hot but not boiling water to the matcha. The temperature should be around 80°C (176°F).
Using a bamboo whisk, whisk the matcha and hot water vigorously in a ‘W’ motion until the powder is fully dissolved and a frothy layer forms on top.
In a glass, add 1 cup of ice cubes.
Pour 240 milliliters of unsweetened almond milk over the ice cubes.
Add the whisked matcha mixture to the glass.
Sweeten the latte by adding 2 teaspoons of maple syrup or adjust to taste.
Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing Vegan Iced Matcha Latte!
