Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 12 tablespoons maple syrup (adjust to taste)
  • 1½ teaspoons ceremonial-grade matcha powder
  • ¼ cup hot water (not boiling)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Ice (for serving)

Cold Foam (Optional)

  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • 1½ tablespoons sweetened condensed milk

Instructions

  1. Make the Matcha: In a small bowl or cup, combine the hot water (ensure it’s hot but not boiling), maple syrup, pinch of salt, and sifted ceremonial-grade matcha powder. Whisk vigorously using a bamboo whisk, milk frother, or standard whisk until the matcha is fully dissolved and smooth, with no lumps.
  2. Assemble the Latte: Fill a tall glass with ice cubes. Pour in the whole milk, then slowly pour the prepared matcha mixture over the milk to create a layered effect. Stir gently to combine the flavors.
  3. Prepare Optional Cold Foam: In a small bowl or cup, whisk or froth the heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk together until soft peaks form, creating a light and creamy foam.
  4. Finish and Serve: Spoon or pour the prepared cold foam over the top of the iced matcha latte for added richness and texture. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use ceremonial-grade matcha for the best flavor and smoothness.
  • Adjust the amount of maple syrup according to your preferred sweetness level.
  • Ensure water is hot but not boiling to avoid bitterness in the matcha.
  • The cold foam is optional but adds a delicious creamy contrast to the drink.
  • This drink is best enjoyed fresh and cold.
